Andrew Borland, born 1893, died 1979, was a Scottish preacher, educator, and editor whose ministry within the Plymouth Brethren movement left a significant mark on Christian literature and education in the 20th century. Born in Galston, Ayrshire, Scotland, to a family with Brethren ties—his brother John S. Borland later documented the movement’s history in the region—he earned an M.A. from Glasgow University in 1917. Borland spent 43 years as an English teacher and Head of the English Department at Kilmarnock Higher Grade School, retiring in 1963, but his true calling emerged in his religious work. He began editing The Christian Worker from 1929 to 1938, followed by a 36-year tenure as editor of The Believer’s Magazine from 1938 to 1974, shaping Brethren thought through articles and commentary. Borland’s preaching was characterized by a scholarly yet accessible approach, reflecting his Brethren commitment to scripture-focused, non-clerical ministry. He traveled widely to speak at assemblies, often emphasizing practical faith and doctrinal clarity, and authored over a dozen works, including children’s novels and theological booklets like The Glories of the Man Christ Jesus. Married to Janet Richmond Aitken on August 15, 1923, who shared his faith despite abandoning her own missionary ambitions for their union, he balanced family life with his extensive ministry.
