REV. ANDREW MURRAY

A Christian mystic and evangelical of South Africa’s Dutch Reformed (Presbyterian) Church, and a leading voice in the broader worldwide Higher Life and Holiness movements, Reverend Andrew Murray, D.D., wrote over two hundred books and tracts on what he called the higher, deeper, or more Spirit-filled Christian life. Although he died in 1918, over thirty of Rev. Murray’s devotional-quality classics are still in print in dozens of the world’s languages, and widely read across the Christian spectrum. Tens of thousands of reviews of these classics—found posted on the websites of various internet booksellers—consistently produce five-star ratings, and are typically accompanied by statements that express the profound effect of spiritual force or anointed quality of Rev. Murray’s insights. Mature Christians who read Rev. Murray for the first time often express gratitude to God for having used this humble late minister to make a key difference in their spiritual life, with many even describing a more marked transformation into a much higher, richer life in Christ.

About the Editor

and

Author of the Introduction

Dr. David Belt, since 2008, has served as Professor, Regional Security and Intelligence Studies, in the College of Strategic Intelligence, at National Intelligence University, Washington DC—the graduate institution for the seventeen U.S. intelligence agencies. He develops and leads courses, and supervises graduate-level research, in the social analysis of strategic-level security issues in the Broader Middle East and North Africa region, including Turkey and Iran. Previously, David served as Assistant Professor, National Security Studies, National Defense University, Washington DC. In a former naval career, Captain Belt served twenty-six years on active-duty in high-risk operational, combat, and executive leadership positions in the U.S. Navy’s Special Operations Officer community.

A personal note: I was—in the words of Jesus—“born again” at the U.S. Naval Academy in 1981. In the subsequent three decades of frequent military moves, I studied God’s Word, studied theology at seminary, and volunteered in over a dozen churches and eight local and international ministries across the Christian spectrum. Along the way, the Lord blessed my feeble obedience with many memorable faith-building experiences. Yet, throughout, I remained under the conviction that my inner life was somehow lacking—that I was not progressing in the way that God had intended. After 33 years in this strangely unfulfilled spiritual state, our loving Father in Heaven used both a moment of crisis, and Rev. Andrew Murray, to lead me to first believe in, and then to continually experience, the markedly higher, more Spirit-filled Christian life. My aim here is to share it with you.
