Book Review Oswald Chambers 1874 -1917 "Oswald Chambers was a man unbridled by the world and its desires. Some say he was one of the greatest Christian thinkers of our time. He was born on July 24, 1874 in Aberdeen Scotland, where he became a Christian during his teen years under the ministry of Charles Spurgeon." -Charles Stanley ______________ Have you received Christ as your Lord and Saviour?
