In 1672, he was ordained as a minister in Auchterless, returning a year later to Kings College as Professor of Divinity, a role he held until his untimely death in 1678. The Life of God in the Soul of Man is essentially a heartfelt letter of doctrine and encouragement directed to a friend struggling with faith, initially never meant for public eyes. In his epistle, Scougal explores three pivotal themes the essence of true religion, its remarkable benefits, and its foundational elements. This work beautifully exemplifies his unique blend of scholarly insight with genuine faith, illustrating that practical piety can only arise from the divine presence within our souls.
