The Spiritual Life

Written by Andrew Murray

Narrated by LibriVox Community

In this book, Andrew Murray explores the dynamics of the Christian life as Jesus means it to be lived. He explains how the Holy Spirit is essential to living effectively as a believer. Christians are often all too well aware of the feebleness of their life and testimony. This most encouraging book, consisting of a series of lectures given to students at the Moody Bible Institute in Chicago in 1895, shows how the working of the Holy Spirit in the Christian’s life makes all the difference. It shows how God’s power is made perfect in weakness, and how His Holy Spirit may animate and renew every area of the believer’s life. (Summary by Christopher Smith)

Andrew Murray

ANDREW MURRAY (1828-1917) was a church leader, evangelist, and missionary statesman. As a young man, Murray wanted to be a minister, but it was a career choice rather than an act of faith. Not until he had finished his general studies and begun his theological training in the Netherlands, did he experience a conversion of heart. Sixty years of ministry in the Dutch Reformed Church of South Africa, more than 200 books and tracts on Christian spirituality and ministry, extensive social work, and the founding of educational institutions were some of the outward signs of the inward grace that Murray experienced by continually casting himself on Christ. A few of his books include The True Vine, Absolute Surrender, The School of Obedience, Waiting on God, and The Prayer Life.

Reviews for The Spiritual Life

[Harry Richardson · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

This Spiritual Work by Pastor Andrew Murray is absolutely excellent in its instructions. To have him explain in practical life experiences the life of Christ lived out daily in the believers life is a Jewel. Ever believer should get this classic and through prayer with the Holy Spirits help read, study and trust the Lord to do and complete his works in them.

So good. It helps you to understand why a Christian should have a desire to completely surrender their life to Christ.
What does this world have to offer that we should hold to it?
This book helps you to understand what real living for the Lord looks like and why we must.
Jesus gave up all to become who He is, our Savior.
We must be willing, or at least be willing to be willing to give up our life for Him.
