This is the second biography of Muller I have read. The first one I borrowed from a church library probably 20 years ago, that dealt with his life work of opening orphanages and bringing up orphans in a big way.
This book, however, uses 5 chapters to show us the earlier life of Muller. Apparently, he was quite a scoundrel before he followed Christ in Theological Seminary. It was in Herr Kayser's Bible Meeting that he met God. He went there to get ideas on how to preach, after all, he was being educated to become a pastor. Apart from bible reading, hymn singing, it was the sermon reading that brought about his abrupt change of heart. After that conviction of heart, he became a new person mightily used by God to improve the lives of thousands of orphans. Amazing achievement for someone who depends only on prayers.
