Devotions for Morning and Evening with Oswald Chambers
Oswald Chambers was born in Aberdeen, Scotland, in 1874.  Converted in his teen years under the ministry of Charles Haddon Spurgeon, he studied art and archaeology at the University of Edinburgh before answering a call from God to the Christian ministry.  He then studied theology at Dunoon College.  From 1906-1910 his career of service took him to the United States and Japan, but the two outstanding periods of his work were as principal of the Bible Training College at Chapham, England (1911-1915), and his ministry to Australian and New Zealand troops as a YMCA chaplain at Zeitoun Egypt during World War I.  He died there on November 5, 1917.  More than 30 books bear his name, and his best-known book,My Utmost for His Highest,is a Christian classic.
