Talks that will enable you to HEAR Andrew Murray preachIf you count Andrew Murray as one of your heroes of the faith, or have read some of his published works, then these six talks are sure to find a special place in your heart. They are basically word for word as he delivered them.˃˃˃ Andrew Murray at KeswickThree of these talks were delivered on consecutive evenings at the Keswick Convention of 1895 in the Lake District, England. They are unique to Keswick and differ in content from other sermons published under the same titles while on tour in America.˃˃˃ Andrew Murray at Exeter HallAfter arriving back from his preaching tour of America in the autumn of 1895, the organizers of his tour requested that he speak on prayer at a small gathering of full-time workers and interested Christians at Exeter Hall. The talks he gave on that occasion were originally published under the title Eagle Wings in 1895. They are among the best of his talks.˃˃˃ Two TestimoniesBoth testimonies were given at Keswick, and are the only testimonies that we know of. One was given in 1882, just after the miraculous healing of his throat, while the other was given at the Keswick Convention of 1895.
Over the course of a career that lasted more than fifty years, Andrew Geller—architect, artist, and designer—quietly produced a large and culturally significant body of work, leaving an invaluable mark in his field. Geller's impact was first felt in the heady post-World War II years he spent at the Raymond Loewy design firm, where one highlight amongst many was his improvisational and free-handed influence on the Lord & Taylor brand. He is undoubtedly most well-known, though, for his architecture, and his stunning modernist beach houses in particular, houses that still grace our shores and which, not unlike Andrew Geller himself, were innovative, unconventional, and saturated with a delight for beauty and form.In Andrew Geller: Deconstructed, Jake Gorst celebrates the life and work of his grandfather, bringing together two-decades worth of interviews, both formal and informal, as well as many artifacts and treasures culled from Geller's vast personal collection of drawings and photographs. Included within are stories and images not only of his now famous beach houses, but also of the many lesser-known buildings and early artworks, making this the definitive volume on this architectural icon. Gorst's intent in writing this volume - to share this wealth of information and provide an intimate glimpse into the inner workings of an artist—is here fully actualized, rendering a vivid portrait of a man whose main drive in life was to create beauty whatever he did.
For those who love Historical Fiction about Christian heroes of the faithHistorically accurate, and based upon Andrew Murray's letters and early biographiesA boyish and fun-loving Andrew Murray arrives back in South Africa after being ordained at the Hague on his twentieth birthday. He soon discovers that his preaching lacks the power displayed by his heroes of the faith. He therefore decides to embark on a quest to become a powerful preacher filled with the Holy Spirit.But not long after his appointment as pastor to the Dutch emigrants beyond the borders of the Cape, he finds that he is being shunted off course by a frenetic round of preaching tours that sap his energy and leave him little time to spend with God. He also finds himself having to cope with an overly demanding church council, as well as walk a tightrope between the Boer farmers and the British Settler community who are bent on land speculation to the detriment of neighbouring tribes.Feeling overwhelmed by the task, and knowing that he was pressed into taking it, he starts to doubt his calling. It does not take him long to realize that he has to either man-up or bow out.WALK with Andrew Murray as he negotiates his first year of ministry to the Voortrekkers in the Orange River Sovereignty and the Transvaal between the years 1849 and 1850.PLACE yourself with him in the wilds of Africa teaming with game, lions and African wolves.THROW into this mix the British, who at the Battle of Boomplaats in 1848 have just taken over the land between the Orange and Vaal Rivers.IMMERSE yourself in a world where the Boer is forever ready to rebel against their British overlords, and where Paramount Chief Moshesh of the Basuto is constantly threatening war against the British and neighbouring tribes.OBSERVE how Andrew Murray at twenty-one is able to straddle the divide between Boer and Brit and grow into his role as lone pastor, eager to serve his far-flung congregation of over 20 000 souls.Scroll up and grab a copy today
Hankering to go, but needing to stayA true story about facing the challenges of Christian leadership in a volatile environment of political intrigue and church secessionTwenty-eight year old Andrew Murray has just married Emma Rutherfoord, the girl of his dreams, and is looking forward to resuming his ministry in Bloemfontein with her at his side. But he is barely back in town, when trouble strikes.The small, land-locked Orange Free State throws up a series of nail biting situations in which Andrew is called upon to play a central role. They include: The attempted take-over of the Orange Free State by Marthinus Pretorius, President of the Transvaal The devastation of Beersheba Mission during the Basuto War The secession of Psalm-singing (Dopper) members within his own congregation Antagonism towards his bilingual education program at Grey College The need to acquire Dutch teachers for his farm school project Notwithstanding all the tensions outside the home, there is also the 'small' matter of Andrew only knowing his wife Emma for about seven face-to-face weeks before he married her. So on the home front, Andrew finds himself having to navigate marriage with a wonderfully talented wife, but one who knows her own mind. Added to this is his growing desire to start over again in a new congregation. But although he hankers to go, there are responsibilities forcing him to stay--that is, until God has finished with his training.
