Robert Murray McCheyne — (1813-1843) was born on May 21, 1813, in Edinburgh, Scotland. He was licensed to preach at the age of 22, ordained to the pastorate of St. Peter's Church, Dundee Scotland, at 23, and died six years later. McCheyne rarely preached outside his native land. He wrote no books and was extremely frail in health. However, the impact of the "prophet of Dundee," as he was known, lives on to this day. History records that the entire land of Scotland was shaken by him, and that at his death, it wept. |
