Selwyn Hughes

Selwyn Hughes (27 April 1928 – 9 January 2006) was a Welsh Christian minister best known for writing the daily devotional Every Day with Jesus. He founded the Christian ministry Crusade for World Revival (CWR) and wrote over fifty Christian books. George Carey, the former archbishop of Canterbury, described Hughes as a "giant in the faith".

Life Hughes was born near Dowlais, Glamorganshire, in Wales on 27 April 1928. He worked in the Welsh coal mining industry for his national service. In 1965 he founded an organisation called Crusade for World Revival (CWR).

Hughes remained strong in his faith in spite of the death of his wife in 1986 from cancer and the subsequent death of their two sons. He published his autobiography My Story in 2004, and in 2005 Brunel University awarded him an honorary Doctorate of Divinity for his service to Christian education.
