Synopsis

“Remain in My Love” ―John 15:9
Many Christians go to church each week burdened by guilt and shame, believing they are unworthy of God’s full love. In Abide in Christ, Andrew Murray reminds every Christian that God promises His constant presence with them.

In just ten minutes a day, Andrew Murray’s 31-day spiritual guide offers timeless meditations and practical lessons. Move from a divided heart to wholehearted surrender. Your hunger for God’s presence is made to be satisfied―experience a deep, authentic, and ongoing connection with Jesus.

In this edition, Murray’s 19th-century classic features lightly updated language for easier reading, understanding, and connecting with Jesus.

With a foreword and afterword by Doug Nuenke, US president of The Navigators, Abide in Christ will send you into the world even as it draws you into a full life in Christ.

About this title

Review

The invitation to abide in Christ has wooed and inspired generation after generation for millennia, and this fresh edition of Andrew Murray’s work will lead many more into what Jesus meant when He promised, “These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.” I want more of that! It really does work. It really is practical. And it really is contemporary. (David Lyons, international vice president, The Navigators)

In this timeless book, Andrew Murray illuminates Christ’s glorious gift of a life spent abiding with Him. This book is an invitation for us to seek God and to make Him our dwelling place. (Susan Fletcher, historian, The Navigators)

Abide in Christ brings a sense of restoration in relating to and experiencing God. If you long for harmony of your soul with God, a freshness to engage with and enjoy God in a deeper, life-changing way, this devotional is for you. (Karen Taniguchi, associate director, International Student Ministry, The Navigators)

When I was invited to read the manuscript for this version of Abide in Christ by Andrew Murray, I had just finished listening to an audiobook of the classic version. I’d not read it in many years, and it was so refreshing to dive into this timeless message again. The one thing I found myself wishing was that there was an updated version in today’s English. Voilą! It’s here. Thank you, NavPress! I commend to you this refreshing version of Andrew Murray’s classic. Prepare to have your soul refreshed. (Tom Bourke, associate field director, Navigators Cities)

The Bible is our ultimate guide to life, but oftentimes it is fruitful to have a tool that helps us dive deeper into its pages and reintroduces us to its powerful yet refreshing truths. Andrew Murray has given us a practical way to “gather a day’s portion every day.” Enjoy. (Mark Heffentrager, director, Eagle Lake Camps)

We have often found the fuller meaning of words in the Scriptures helpful to our understanding. Andrew Murray takes this a step further by exploring the concept of abiding to new and profound levels. This book is best savored slowly as it prompts us to deeper and deeper contemplation of what it means for us to make our home in Jesus Christ. (Ken and Tina Larson, associate field directors, The Navigators)

Jesus invites us to follow Him, and yet we often live as if we are following from a distance. If you are weary in your work, take thirty-one days to intentionally abide. See if you don’t find yourself closer to Him, intimately at His side. (Aimee Haywood, manager, Donor Care, The Navigators)

This is an amazing work created to help believers worldwide go deeper in relationship with Jesus. As you read it, pray that the Holy Spirit will take you to the next level in your spiritual life. I highly recommend it! (Armando Diaz, LaVida Network director, Nations Within, The Navigators)

Living overseas for years taught me another language, affected my outlook on life, and yes, changed my driving habits. Jesus’ invitation to abide is quite similar to living in another place. Andrew Murray draws our attention to the amenities of our new home and eagerly reminds us of the privileges that we are missing out on. Where we live changes everything. (John Hess, director, Nations Within, The Navigators)

Each of these daily readings is a refreshing and meaningful chance to engage with Jesus in deeper ways. Andrew Murray draws us to a commitment of the timeless opportunity of abiding in Christ that still transforms our lives today. We are trusting God for more of this in The Navigators. (Adam Sperling, EDGE director, The Navigators)
