Selwyn Hughes was one of the UK’s most influential post-war Christian leaders. In a ministry spanning six decades, he successfully combined the roles of writer, pastor, counsellor and teacher.
He was also the founder and Life President of CWR (Crusade for World Revival), an organisation that produces a wide variety of Christian resources, including the international bestselling publication Every Day with Jesus, and has spearheaded countless training and teaching courses, especially in the field of Christian counselling and pastoral care.
Welsh background
Selwyn was born in Wales on April 27 1928, during the period of post-war depression. Inspired by the faith of his family, many of whom had been influenced by the great Welsh Revival of 1904, he professed his own Christian faith at the age of 16.
