Summary: Humble yourself in the sight of the Lord...
Review: Anddrew Murray writes with the simplicity and love of a pastor, without soft-soaping or sugar-coating the truth. His abandonment and love for Christ is evident in all of his works and, therefore, qualifies him, in my opinion, to write a book on humility. You can tell he has experienced humility and that it is not just an intellectual excercise. The one thing I took away from this book is that humility is indeed an experience; you can hear about the need to be humble, read, and even study about it. But unless the Spirit makes humility real personally to the individual, it is possible to become haughty about the need for being humble. Andrew Murray's works have added so much to my Christian life; I feel closer to G-d because of the things he has written.

Review: Andrew Murray seems to capture the essence of what it means to be a Christian, and this book is no different. This a beautiful treatise on the subject of Humility, and Murray offers specific directions for believers, from Scripture, whereby we may be transformed and conformed to the image of Christ. I loved it, and I'm sure you will, too.

Summary: HUMILITY WILL TRANSFORM YOUR LIFE
Review: I have been reading and rereading this book for about fifteen years. The author has given us a glimpse of what true holiness is and how to obtain it...seeing the humility of Jesus. As we look into the dying face that deserved to stand up for His rights (since He was without sin), yet gave up His rights, we WILL be transformed into His image. His was the face that did not retaliate when He was insulted, and made no threat to get even, and asked His Father to forgive his tormentors!! One of my favorite passages of the book is where Murray gives the picture of water rushing to the lowest places first. The lower we are before the Lord, the more receptive to receive his divine glory!!!!

Summary: Humility - the most neglected trait of Christ-likedness
Review: In this little book of his meditations, Andrew Murray brings out by God's Word how humility is defined, how humility can be attained, and how humility is oh so needed today. After reading it, I received a more clearer understanding scripturally on humility. I thought I had an idea about this subject, but that's all I had -- an idea. This little book spurred me into God's Word to seek out Christ as my Example. I truly believe this book can be a help to anyone who desires to have a closer walk with the Lord, and also has a desire just to be a servant for Him.

Summary: Possibly the Best Book Ever Written on Humility
Review: This book is a must read for every Christian. I have never read a book which so accurately defines Biblical humility. Murray shows how humility is a mindset and lifestyle, not a feeling. Humility is the one-word definition of every Christian's life--or it should be. Humility is the one-word description of all Christ was and is and of how He lived as our example to follow. The most amazing truth in this book is that which speaks of humility being a quality not resulting from sin, but from grace (God working within the believer). Jesus was perfect in humility, yet He never sinned. Humility was required on the part of the Son of God in Heaven before He ever became incarnate, so humility is a heavenly, Godlike quality. We need not sin to be humble; we need to be like Jesus as found in Mark 10:45 to be humble. In other words, for a Christian to be perfectly humble, he/she must be the greatest servant, not the greatest sinner. And if one could be totally sinless in this life, he/she would be perfectly humble. This book is too short, too low in cost, and too easy to read (though challenging in virtually every sentence) for any Christian to have an excuse not to read it.

Summary: A Life Changing Book
Review: This book needs to be read by all Christians. This is so foundational to the life of a believer. The book isn't even 100 pages and it was written 200 years ago but is very valid and impacting for a Christian in this day and age. The core of Jesus' being is examined and written about. The statements in this book aren't simply and author's opinion, but biblical facts. Humility was Jesus and there is nothing Jesus did that is impossible for us to to. Jesus died to Himself, and so can we. Jesus is the prototype of humility for all Christians to learn from and live out. Get this book, it's too important not to own and read. This book is only 98 pages and doesn't take a lot of time to read. You might want to get 2 copies because you'll wear the first one out because you'll read it so much.

Summary: Want to be a servant of Jesus Christ?
Review: What is true humility? Where did it have its beginning? Is humility necessary for me to have a relationship with God? How do I obtain humility? The answers to these questions along with their Biblical reference are given in this book. This book is to the point on the need for and how to have a servant heart. All of the writings of Andrew Murray are foundational to the Christian faith. The Christian way of life.
