Robert Murray McCheyne for free on LOGOS Bible Software or the LOGOS iPhone / iPad app. John Piper’s message this year will focus on Robert Murray McCheyne, an influential nineteenth-century Scottish Presbyterian minister and missionary. Their hope is that this resource will better help attendees prepare for the upcoming 2011 Desiring God National Pastor’s Conference, running January 31 through February 2, 2011 in Minneapolis, MN. Even if you’re not going to the conference, you can still download the resource for free.  Visit the LOGOS blog here:  LINK for details.  If you’d like to learn more about Robert Murray McCheyne, you may also want to consider these other titles from Christian Focus Publications (see  below).  If you’ll be attending the conference, be sure to visit the Christian Focus Publications tables in the book hall. Tell Anthony that Shaun sent you. ;-) (Don’t worry, he knows who I am.)
