During the four years Chambers served at the College, it was open to students of all ages, educational levels, and classes. In the meantime, Chambers founded and was principal of the Bible Training College in Clapham, Greater London. In 1910, Chambers married Gertrude Hobbs, and they had a daughter in 1913. “We look for visions from heaven, for earthquakes and thunders of God’s power (the fact that we are dejected proves that we do), and we never dream that all the time God is in the commonplace things and people around us.” Chambers traveled to Japan and the United States, working with various Holiness missionaries and ministries.

Oswald Chambers had a gift for art, and trained for a time at London’s Royal Academy of Art and then at Edinburgh University. “Doubt is not always a sign that a man is wrong it may be a sign that he is thinking.” “This marked a period of rapid spiritual growth, along with an intense struggle to find God’s will and way for his life.” () His family moved to London when he was 15, and shortly afterward Chambers publicly professed his faith in Christ and became a member of a local Baptist church. Oswald Chambers was born in 1874 in Scotland, the youngest son of a Baptist minister. “Don’t forget to pray today because God did not forget to wake you up this morning.” Gertrude “Biddy” Chambers, Oswald’s wife, compiled the book from her husband’s sermons and writings.

One hundred years after his death, Oswald Chambers’ devotional classic My Utmost for His Highest has been translated into 39 languages and never gone out of print. “Faith never knows where it is being led, but it loves and knows the One who is leading.”
