The School of Obedience (Dodo Press

Rev. Andrew Murray (1828-1917) was a South African writer, educationist and Christian pastor. Andrew was sent to Aberdeen in Scotland for his initial education together with his elder brother, John. From there they both went to the University of Utrecht where they studied theology. The two brothers became members of Het Reveil, a religious movement opposed to the rationalism which was in vogue in the Netherlands at that time. Both brothers were ordained by the Hague Committee of the Dutch Reformed Church in 1848 and returned to the Cape. Andrew pastored churches in Bloemfontein, Worcester, Cape Town and Wellington, all in South Africa. His works include: Holy in Christ (1887), "Jesus Himself" (1893), The Master's Indwelling (1896), Lord: Teach Us to Pray (1896) and The True Vine: Meditations for a Month on John (1898).
