One Good Owner by Murdoch Murchison

Murdo 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.

Profound and poignant, as we see the Lord's plans and purposes for Murdo's life unfold before our eyesI am privileged to know the man and call him my friend.

-- Iain MacAskill (Pastor, Stirling Free Church of Scotland, Stirling)

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.

-- Kenneth Ian MacKenzie (Minister, Braemar and Crathie parish; domestic chaplain to HM The King; previous minister, Scottish Mission in Budapest)

An entertaining and inspirational read.

-- George Mackenzie (Son of Donald Mackenzie, Murdo Murchison's first boss)

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)

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)

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)

... 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)
Murdo Murchison, born and bred in the Highlands, owned a much–respected business, close to Stirling in Scotland. A man of God who had a deep love for his home, family and community; Murdo was a founding member of Stirling Free Church, and a FC lay preacher for many years.
