About this book

A short book by Andrew Murray on going deeper in the Christian life, first published in 1895. Murray writes on the fuller surrender, humility, and unbroken fellowship with God that many believers long for yet settle short of, urging his readers not to rest content with a shallow Christianity. Quiet and insistent, it is characteristic Murray.
