Christs School

Jesus lived in a way that all people admire—compassionate, humble, committed, wise, and self-sacrificial. Yet Jesus calls people to do more than admire him. He invites us to learn his way and develop his character by becoming his disciples. The School of Christ is a book for those who want to take Jesus' yoke and grow to be more like him. We stand alongside his disciples as he challenges them to face their fears, abandon their ambitions, and learn to love.

Dutch Reformed Pastor Andrew Murray probes Scripture and the life of Christ in order to teach us how to pray effectually. He asks us to enroll in a new kind of academy. With the Redeemer as our headmaster, Murray gently instructs us on how to experience a thriving relationship with Jesus Christ through the means of prayer.

This audiobook has been written with a deep impression that the place and power of prayer in the Christian life is too little understood. I feel sure that as long as we look on prayer solely as the means of maintaining our own Christian life, we shall not know fully what it is meant to be. But when we learn to regard it as the highest part of the work entrusted to us, the root and strength of all other work, we shall see that we need nothing more than to study and practice the art of praying.

Andrew Murray (1828-1917) was a South African writer, teacher, and Christian pastor. This Best Of collection comprises seven of his most trenchant books.

In With Christ in the School of Prayer, first published in 1885, the famed and prolific South African pastor, writer, and educator Andrew Murray uses his extensive knowledge on Christianity, the Bible, and Christian tradition, as well as his deep faith, to explore the act of prayer. A fascinating listen for devout Christians and theology students alike, Murray discusses prayer not only as an act of "maintaining faith" but as a means to achieve a connection with Christ unattainable by most.

DEAR PARENT OR TEACHER, We have four children and have been missionaries in Southeast Asia for the last twelve years. Three of our grown children have returned to America and are continuing to follow the Lord. Each child is active in a church; making a difference in this fallen world. My wife and I made plenty of mistakes as parents and thank God every day for the blessing of children who follow Him. Especially when we consider the statistic that over half of those who leave home as young adults also leave the church… forever. If you were to ask our children how they learned to follow ...

After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven … “The chief thing we need for a life of prayer is to know that Jesus teaches us to pray … Jesus’ teaching takes us up into the fellowship of His own prayer life before the Father.

With Christ in the School of Prayer begins at the spiritual elementary level and takes us step by step to the heights of prayer in faith,...

Jesus never taught his disciples how to preach, only how to pray. He did not speak much of what was needed to preach well but spoke much of praying well. To know how to speak to God is more important than knowing how to speak to man. Not power with men, but power with God is the first thing. Jesus loves to teach us how to pray. With Christ in the School of Prayer offers a structured series of 31 short and concise, practical, and powerful lessons on prayer to fill the reader’s heart with a hunger for God’s presence.

What is love? You love your spouse. You love your children. You love your parents. You love your friends. You love God. You love chocolate cake and ice cream! The English language has one word for love. The Greek language has four words for love (eros, philia, storge, and agape). What is true love? What is God’s agape love? God is our example of true, agape love. God loved people so much that He gave his only Son, that whoever would believe in him should not perish, but have eternal life. A person who does not know God cannot love in the truest sense. Love is more than a feeling. Our ...

Two Indians on the banks of the Missouri River in North America. Two horse lords on the plains of Mongolia. Two Tuareg warriors in the deserts of Africa. They all share a common sight, a phenomenon that victimizes them during the course of an entire day. Fear overtakes them but they are helpless to even respond to their fears. There is nothing than can be done as they are forced to witness and experience the consequences of that ill-fated day. There is no option but to cringe and hide from the day's grief.

This is one of the most urgently needed books I have ever written. If we don’t learn how to recognize, restore, and receive from the genuinely prophetic men and women in the Body of Christ then the purity and simplicity of a Christ-Centered Faith will be lost. If you think I’m overstating the problem then you don’t fully appreciate the danger of our times. The purpose of all prophetic speaking is to reveal Christ – to bring Him more clearly into view. Those inspired to speak or proclaim something by the Holy Spirit should be helping to direct our attention onto Christ and away from ...
