Selwyn was a Welsh Christian minister . He is best known for writing the daily devotional Every Day with Jesus. He founded the Christian ministry Crusade for World Revival and wrote over 50 Christian books.
He was born in Fochriw, near Caephilly, in Wales. As a child he was surrounded by a particular brand of Christianity, that of fervent Welsh Valleys 1920s revivalism.
For a number of years he was a miner in the Welsh coal mining industry.
He became convinced that he was called by God to work as a Christian minister so he left his job to study Theology at Bristol. After his ordination he spent 18 years ministering in Pentecostal churches in Cornwall, Wales, Essex and London
Every Day with Jesus started off as brief daily Bible reading note on postcards for his congregation to use in the 1960s. When demand increased he published them regularly - he kept this up for the next 40 years.
In 1965 he founded Crusade for World Revival which he built into a successful Christian training and publishing ministry in Farnham, Surrey.
In 2005 he published his autobiography My Story.
