The book is a modern account of the life of one of Scotland's greatest and most influential preachers, Robert Murray McCheyne. Awakening brings to life the Scottish Baptist minister who devoted his time to studying, preaching, and living the Word of God. David Robertson lets McCheyne speak for himself through published sermons, private papers, and diaries. Join with him in his daily devotions, regular prayers with friends, and his pastoral visits; share in his commitment to overseas mission. Through his disciplined life, ordinary sermons were transformed, as were his prayer meetings, children's work, and pastoral visitation. A story of personal devotion, outreach, and renewal, Awakening traces McCheyne from his upbringing, conversion, and training for the ministry to the revival that occurred in St. Peter's in 1839. Written by the present minister at St. Peter's, Dundee, Awakening is a stirring account of what God did through McCheyne and what God can do today, if only we let him.
