Об авторе
Andrew Murray (1828–1917) was a South African writer, teacher, and Christian pastor who is best remembered for his devotional writings and his passionate advocacy for deeper spiritual living through the practice of prayer. Born into a family of Scottish missionaries, Murray was raised in a setting that reinforced the importance of religious commitment and the power of prayer. His seminal work, ‘The Ministry of Intercession: A Plea for More Prayer’, reflects his unwavering belief in prayer as a fundamental practice for Christians. In this book, Murray explores the transformative potential of intercessory prayer, emphasizing that prayer should not be seen as a mere religious duty but rather as a powerful means of contributing to God’s work and accessing His wisdom and strength. Murray’s contributions extend beyond this singular work; he authored over 240 books and tracts, such as ‘Abide in Christ’ and ‘With Christ in the School of Prayer’, that urge believers toward a more devout and prayer-focused lifestyle. His literary style is characterized by a fervent appeal to the heart, aiming to nurture deep spiritual experiences through practical instruction and devotion to God’s Word. Murray’s impact as a pivotal figure in the 19th-century Holiness movement persists in the lasting influence of his writings among Christians seeking a more devout and prayerful life.
