Description
Book SynopsisMurdo Murchison's life turned upside down on August 30th 2016 when he collapsed with a massive seizure. Within six hours he held the result of a CT scan showing a two centimetre tumour in his brain. This book brings together tales from Murdo's life: humorous exploits from his Highland childhood, experiences from his career as a business owner, and stories about his family and friends. Although these stories are written as he faces a life cut short, each chapter pulsates with a love for his Lord and Saviour and a sweet realism as he recounts the lessons he has learnt during a life well lived.
Trade Review... well written, clear, interesting, real, sad, joyful, full of life and full of hope. Inspiring for Christians and non-Christians alike!
-- David Robertson (Well–known pastor and apologist)
What shines through Murdo Murchison's life story is the author's strong personal Christian faith. Murdo's story is a celebration of a life well lived, and will prove an inspiration to all those facing challenges in their lives.
-- Murdo Fraser (MSP for Mid-Scotland and Fife)
Profound and poignant, as we see the Lord's plans and purposes for Murdo's life unfold before our eyes. I am privileged to know the man and call him my friend.
-- Iain MacAskill (Pastor, Stirling Free Church of Scotland, Stirling)
Murdo's testimony encourages me greatly to store up treasures of permanent value - it won't be in vain because it is ultimately all that matters on both sides of death.
-- Kate Forbes (MSP for Skye, Lochaber and Badenoch)
In this book, we see that Murdo, bravely and honestly, writing out of a context of terminal illness sees that the future is not dark but is as bright as the promises of God.
-- David Meredith (Mission Director, Free Church of Scotland, Inverness)
An entertaining and inspirational read.
-- George Mackenzie (Son of Donald Mackenzie, Murdo Murchison's first boss)
I commend to you Murdo's story. More than that I commend to you Murdo's Lord, in Whom we find meaning and purpose and life in all its fullness.
