Oswald Chambers
Список книг автора Oswald ChambersBiblical Psychology
Published from a series of lectures Chambers gave in 1911 at the London Bible College, the content of Biblical Psychology is as applicable to how we obtain guidance from God today as it was over 100 years ago.
Chambers recognized the pain that exists in the daily lives of man and made it his purpose to help heal that pain through the teachings of Christ. His sermons often focused on strengthening the relationships we have between each other, including our relationship with God.
Reportedly a truly kind and compassionate man- he has been quoted as saying, “We have to pray with our eyes on God, not on the difficulties.”
Studies in the Sermon on the Mount
Oswald Chambers approaches the teachings in Matthew 5-7, the Sermon on the Mount with the same tender and compassionate voice that all of his books convey.
Many describe this book as awe-inspiring, and even though this work has also been described as a challenging, insightful, profound and edifying read, his ability to “translate” the passage in a relatable way is commendable.
Born in 1874 to a devout family in Aberdeen, Scotland, Chambers grew up in Stoke-on-Trent very much involved in the church, as his father was a pastor. He was actually offered a scholarship to attend the Royal College of Art (then the National Art Training School) after studying there briefly but luckily for Christians everywhere, he declined in order to devote his life to ministering and teaching.
Bis Christus euer Leben prägt
Kurze Tagesandachten für ein ganzes Jahr! Oswald Chambers gibt in gewohnt herausfordernder Weise markante Anregungen und Hilfen für die persönliche Nachfolge Christi, die sich wie das Substrat seiner Offenbarungen zum Wesen Gottes, dem Glauben und den Schwächen des Menschen lesen. Die kleinen Häppchen – jeweils ein bis drei Sätze – sind gut verdaulich, nahrhaft und gewinnbringend für jeden, der sich auf die brillante Mischung aus Wahrheit und Weisheit, Tadel und Trost einlässt. Erstmals in deutscher Sprache! Oswald Chambers (1874-1917) war weltweit als Bibellehrer und Prediger tätig. Im Ersten Weltkrieg arbeitete er als Pastor unter englischsprachigen Soldaten in Ägypten. Seine Werke wurden posthum von seiner Frau veröffentlicht, die dafür auf ihre Notizen und Mitschriften zurückgriff.
