In his day, no preacher in the Highlands was as attractive or well
regarded as the Reverend Murdoch Campbell, the author of 'Gleanings
of Highland Harvest', 'The Loveliest Story Ever Told', 'Memories of
a Wayfaring Man', and 'Wells of Joy'. His Diary is of interest for
his life and times, but also as one of the few documented accounts
of 20th century Christian mysticism, extending across forty-one
years. Its value is not only historical or academic; such a record
of fellowship with God is for many beyond price. Interest in
mysticism is flourishing, but relatively few commentators look at
the Biblical mysticism of Evangelical Protestants. Here the Diary
speaks for itself, while a Preface, Biographical Notes, and
footnotes add background information and comment. Mystical
knowledge of God is not in competition with either faith or 'love
for one's neighbour as oneself', but is an added privilege, granted
to few. It represents a challenge to well-substantiated ordinary
assumptions concerning what can be known, both naturally and, for
believers, spiritually. Yet this Diary shows how such contact with
God leads beyond ordinary experience to the suburbs of Heaven.
