I've never known anyone else who can put such depth and meaning into 300 words every day like Chambers does in this book. He doesn't just deliver a warm mushy feeling like so many devotionals, but convinces you that Jesus is someone to be trusted, obeyed, and sought with all your heart. A wonderful, year-long journey that I recommend to pretty much anyone. One of the most famous devotional books in the world-several millions in print no reviews | add a review
Amazon.com (ISBN 078526101X, Hardcover)Oswald Chambers, a Scotsman who converted to Christianity in his teens under the ministry of Charles Spurgeon, has been affecting Christians with his devotional words since My Utmost for His Highest was first published in 1935. This acknowledged classic contains 365 daily readings that take heady doctrine and make it practical, realistic, and intensely personal. With humor and humility, Chambers speaks plainly to the common man struggling with devotion to Christ in daily living. Worldly cares and self-serving desires begin to lose their appeal as Chambers aides the reader in transforming his mind by viewing life through the instruction of God's Word. Richard Halverson, former chaplain of the United States Senate, attests to this: "no book except the Bible has influenced my walk with Christ at such deep maturing levels." This is Chambers's chief desire, directing the reader to "shut out every other consideration and keep yourself before God for this one thing only--My Utmost for His Highest... determined to be absolutely and entirely for Him and for Him alone." --Jill Heatherly(retrieved from Amazon Fri, 24 Apr 2009 07:58:01 -0400) The first test round has been closed.
