CONSTRAINED BY HIS LOVE
A new biography of Robert Murray McCheyne
By L.J. Van Valen. Christian Focus. 491 pages. £15.99
ISBN 1 85792 793 1

Robert Murray McCheyne is best remembered today for his famous Bible reading plan - and yet it rates only a paragraph's mention in this substantial biography of the Scottish preacher.

During his short life, McCheyne became one of the leaders of the 19th-century Scottish revival, as well as being actively involved in the Zionist, Sabbatarian and church-building causes of the day. His personal, humble conviction by the Holy Spirit, and passion for the gospel and his 'flock' in Dundee, shine out through this book.
