Forgotten Spurgeon
Iain H. Murray

A Great Work!
This is truly a great work on Spurgeon.
It is by no means trying to give a complete look at his life, but rather is focused at highlighting a few key controversies and aspects of his life that are often obscured in modern analysis of Spurgeon. That is the stated ...

Banner of Truth, 1995
Spurgeon's Fight For Gospel Preaching
While other readers have had negative opinions of Murray's work on the doctrinal battles between Charles Spurgeon and hyper-Calvinist, I enjoyed Murray's work and thought he did a masterful job of presenting an historical account of the debate. While sadly this debate ...

Sketches from Church History
S. M. Houghton; Iain H. Murray; S.M. Houghton
The Banner of Truth Trust, 1981
Reformed But Interesting View of Church History
S.M. Houghton's book on church history was a book that was first given to me while I was in college. I skeemed through it but found it to be boring. My reading was very limited back then. But after picking up this book again and reading it afresh these many years ...

Old Evangelicalism

Shouldn't Christians be able to say when they were born again?
Doesn't the righteousness of ...

The First volume of this work by Murray shows the dynamism of a man who strived for Christ-Exalting Power. After reading the is biography I can only ask myself, "Can such men live again?" What made Dr. Lloyd-Jones so used by God? I suggest at least three factors: 1) ...

Wesley and the Men Who Followed
Iain Murray
Banner of Truth, 2003
No Apologetic for Arminianism!
A previous reviewer said:
"With all this in mind, it is important to view Murray's book as an apologetic work, not solely of John Wesley or his preachers, but of Evangelical Arminianism."
Such a comment makes one wonder if this reviewer actually read the work! ...

A Scottish Christian Heritage
Iain H. Murray
Banner of Truth, 2006
Murray Does it Again
On the face of it, or judging by the title, A Scottish Christian Heritage does not sound like the kind of book many people would enjoy. It sounds like a book that will dwell on a narrow topic and one that will be of interest to only a select group of people. But those ...

Do you ever wonder where the power in the pulpit is? Have you read about the Great Awakening and the preaching of Whitefield, Wesley, Edwards, and many others and think, Where is that today? Why is it missing? This book, I believe, can help you discover why.
