BOOK DESCRIPTION
Andrew Murray was one of the most influential Christian writers on the deeper Christian life. A passionate pastor, missionary, and author, he challenged believers to pursue a genuine and surrendered walk with God. Through his many books and teachings, he called Christians to total surrender and complete dependence upon Christ.
Known as the author of the Christian classic Absolute Surrender, Murray’s work has influenced countless believers across the world. This updated edition brings his powerful message into the 21st century—preserving his core teaching while adapting the language for today’s readers.
This is not a reprint of Andrew Murray’s original book.
More than a century has passed since Murray first wrote Absolute Surrender. While his message remains as powerful and relevant as ever, the style and language now feel dated to modern readers.
This edition is a 21st-century update of Murray’s classic. I have kept his core message and passionate call to complete surrender intact, while rewriting much of the content and language for today’s world. The heart of the book—learning to live in absolute surrender to Christ—is just as needed now as it was in Murray’s day.
Wherever possible, I have maintained Murray’s earnest and compelling style. However, chapter titles and much of the content have been rewritten to reflect how a believer living in the twenty-first century would apply these life-changing truths.
My prayer is that this updated edition will stir up a new generation of Christians to fully surrender their lives to the lordship of Christ.
