Oswald Chambers’ Life and Legacy 1874–1917
Oswald Chambers was born in Scotland and spent much of his boyhood there. His ministry of teaching and preaching took him for a time to the United States and Japan. The last six years of his life were spent as principal of the Bible Training College in London and as a chaplain to the Allied troops in Egypt during World War l. After his death, the books which bear his name were compiled by his wife, Biddy, from her own verbatim shorthand notes of his talks.
Chambers’s wife compiled a book of readings with one selection for every day of the year from Oswald’s lectures and talks. For the title, she selected the guiding principle for Oswald Chambers’ life: My Utmost for His Highest.

- Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2025I bought several for my women's group, they really appreciated it, many had read the devotional years ago and were happy to have an updated version. Great devotional.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 7, 2025Oswald understands our frailties and God's magnificience. He takes us through our struggles with self and re-directs us to God's awesome promises and power. The natural man gives way to the new creature in Christ!
- Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2025Love this book, so much wisdom, changed my life reading this. Highly recommended read for all Christians and those interested in faith.
Paperback book wears over time on the corners, to be expected. Pages were average thickness. I wrote and highlighted in my copy and didn't see much bleed through.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2025I have been starting my day reading a reflection from this book for the last 4 or 5 years. It keeps me on the right track leading to a life centered on God. Sometimes I don't understand the instructions or the meaning of the readings but that leads me to more research and better understanding of the path I need to stay on.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2025A thoughtful devotional with meaningful insights about our daily walk in the Lord. A daily help and reminder. I have used this devotional for years.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2024This devotional will challenge you to climb higher. If you have been wanting more meat in your spiritual diet this is a wonderful daily source. I will be interested to see as I start a new year if I have actually been able to go higher.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 13, 2024This book offers an in depth look at the daily Christian life. Oswald Chambers offers a deeper perspective for those Christians who aren't satisfied with the status quo of the "Sunday" Christians. His writings shine a light on the Christ-centered life in a day by day format. This book can be read and reread repeatedly and still get insight on something new each time (due to the Holy Spirit's work in our lives at different times). I can heartily recommend this book if you're looking for more in your Christian life.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2024This is my daily devotional. Oswald Chambers has a gift of writing inspired by the Holy Spirit that cuts me to my core. I have purchased many copies and have given them away. I absolutely recommend this devotional.
5.0 out of 5 starsThis is my daily devotional. Oswald Chambers has a gift of writing inspired by the Holy Spirit that cuts me to my core. I have purchased many copies and have given them away. I absolutely recommend this devotional.The BEST DEVOTIONAL

5.0 out of 5 stars Much higher quality-cost ratio than the mass market version
Only $1.5 more than the mass market version, but much higher in quality: higher-quality paper, wider margins, topic and verse indexes, etc.
- LetyciaReviewed in Brazil on April 24, 2024
5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVED IT
This is a real surprise! I can’t put into words how many blessings I received through this devocional! Truly, the best devocional ever!
- BillReviewed in the United Kingdom on February 1, 2024
5.0 out of 5 stars A real blessing
This book has been read by many Christians, and to many, it has been a deep blessing. This book, for many, would be an easier version to understand. I loved the original version but often found it hard because Oswald Chambers was very well educated, and I was told his wife (who also must have been well educated) wrote much of the book from his teaching.
Open your heart to God, and the Lord will bless you too.
