Gifted as a student, pastor, teacher, poet, hymn writer, and artist, Robert Murray M’Cheyne died at the young age of 29. As the stories and photos of this guide show, his short life and ministry had a remarkable impact upon the Christian church worldwide. His most outstanding quality, and probably the principal reason his influence continues today, is what can only be described as his personal holiness. His very presence in the pulpit had a deep effect upon many in the congregation. M’Cheyne is remembered as one of Scotland’s most godly and influential ministers.

Derek Prime served as a pastor in the UK for a 30 years before devoting himself to an itinerant ministry and to writing. He is author of several other books, including Opening Up 1 Corinthians, The Lord’s Prayer for Today, and Unspoken Lessons about the Unseen God: Esther Simply Explained.

John Knox has been described as “the most excellent man our country has produced.” His clear vision for Scotland’s sixteenth-century reformation, and his fiery, outspoken criticism of error and corruption almost cost him his life numerous times.

As you experience the historical places and learn of his life, you will appreciate the legacy he left to his country and the world.
