In 1925 the first edition of "Streams in the Desert" was released. In it were thoughts, quotations, [and] spiritual inspiration that helped to sustain Mrs. Charles E. Cowman during her years of missionary work in Japan and China, particularly the six years she nursed her husband while he was dying.

After two years and 3,000 books in print, it was suggested to Mrs. Cowman that since all her friends had copies, there was probably no need to print any more. From this humble beginning, "Streams in the Desert" has become a daily devotional classic, a leader in its field for more than 40 years. At various times, it has appeared in more than a dozen languages and at present is in four foreign language editions.

Its ministry is worldwide, unhindered by national, political, or geographic boundaries. From a royal palace in North Africa and a presidential mansion in Asia to wartime concentration camps; from primitive huts in remote corners of the world to elegantly furnished houses in cultural centers—to thousands of homes representing a cross-section of the world today.

"Streams in the Desert" continues to bring its spiritual refreshment, its word of encouragement and inspiration just suited for the moments needed. For the readers of more than 2 million copies now in print, "Streams in the Desert" is more than a book: it's a living word of confidence and assurance, God's message for the day.
