This month I have selected a classic book from christian literature entitled Absolute Surrender by Andrew Murray. This book is one that every believer MUST read at some point in their lifetime. IT is a book that every follower of Chrst should have in their library.
It is short. It is well written. It is easily accessible for every reader. And it will literally and powerfully change your life.
Jesus made the standard of followship very clear: "If any man desires to follow Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me." Andrew Murray explains the process of surrendering to Jesus in an effective way. He explains it in real life ways that everyone can follow and learn. Moreover, the book is not about his thoughts, but continually points you to Jesus. Too many time modern writers want to impress the reader with either their own insight, or with more strident language challenging the reader.
Andrew Murray does what a christian author shoudl do - he points you to Jesus. In clear and simple language, he explains the standard and method of absolute surrender int he life of a believer. He also teaches you the joy of the intimacy that follows the discipline of a surrendered life.
Please give it a try this month.
