Christs School

Jesus lived in a way that all people admire—compassionate, humble, committed, wise, and self-sacrificial. Yet Jesus calls people to do more than admire him. He invites us to learn his way and develop his character by becoming his disciples. The School of Christ is a book for those who want to take Jesus' yoke and grow to be more like him. We stand alongside his disciples as he challenges them to face their fears, abandon their ambitions, and learn to love.

This audiobook has been written with a deep impression that the place and power of prayer in the Christian life is too little understood. I feel sure that as long as we look on prayer solely as the means of maintaining our own Christian life, we shall not know fully what it is meant to be. But when we learn to regard it as the highest part of the work entrusted to us, the root and strength of all other work, we shall see that we need nothing more than to study and practice the art of praying.

Dutch Reformed Pastor Andrew Murray probes Scripture and the life of Christ in order to teach us how to pray effectually. He asks us to enroll in a new kind of academy. With the Redeemer as our headmaster, Murray gently instructs us on how to experience a thriving relationship with Jesus Christ through the means of prayer.

In With Christ in the School of Prayer, first published in 1885, the famed and prolific South African pastor, writer, and educator Andrew Murray uses his extensive knowledge on Christianity, the Bible, and Christian tradition, as well as his deep faith, to explore the act of prayer. A fascinating listen for devout Christians and theology students alike, Murray discusses prayer not only as an act of "maintaining faith" but as a means to achieve a connection with Christ unattainable by most.

The Seminary and the School of Christ uncovers one of the most passionate and nearly forgotten struggles in American Baptist history. During the nineteenth century, Baptist life was changing rapidly. Seminaries, education societies, conventions, mission boards, beneficiary funds, theological professors, fundraising agents, and denominational institutions were appearing across America. To many Baptists, these developments represented progress—a way to strengthen the ministry and spread the gospel. But the Old School Baptists saw something more troubling. They asked a question that went far...

There are years most people carry and never fully explain to anyone. The stretch after the diagnosis. The job that never once felt like a calling. The quiet crisis of faith that lasted far longer than you told a soul. Years that left no accomplishment to point to, no story that fits neatly at a dinner party, nothing that looked like progress from the outside while you were living through it. The Gospels have a version of that silence too, sitting directly in the middle of the most consequential biography in Western history. Luke gives you a twelve-year-old in the Temple, astonishing the ...
