PUBLISHER'S PREFACE

The telling of the deeply spiritual life story of the young minister
of the Gospel of St. Peters Church, Dundee, Scotland, Robert Murray
M'Cheyne, has been used of God to bring challenge, blessing and
inspiration to hundreds of thousands down through the years since his
death in 1843 at the early age of 30. Few men have lived a life filled
with such power and blessing in such a short span of years.

"Profitable Bible Study," says, "Every minister, of whatever

The publishers of this unabridged edition send it forth once again
with the earnest prayer that God will continue to use it to the
inspiratio
