Oswald Chambers changed my life with his book, "My Utmost For His Highest"! I first encountered this incredible book in 2004 when it was presented to me by my youth group as a graduation gift. During my first year of college, my friend Laura and I read ol' Ossy together, and had some amazing

discussions! "Utmost" is broken into one page mini-sermons, each one attached to a calendar date. It can be read over and over again, year to year, and that is exactly how I read it!

The best devotional guide ever, still as relevant and piercing as when he first wrote it.

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, a 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
