Mere Christianity
by C.S. Lewis
This week’s giveaway is arguably the most popular Christian book of the twentieth century. Mere Christianity is C.S. Lewis’ masterful overview of the basics of faith. With his typical clarity and charm he covers things like the existence of God, objective morality, and the need for virtue. From Amazon:
“In 1943 Great Britain, when hope and the moral fabric of society were threatened by the relentless inhumanity of global war, an Oxford don was invited to give a series of radio lectures addressing the central issues of Christianity. Over half a century after the original lectures, the topic retains it urgency.
Expanded into book form, Mere Christianity never flinches as it sets out a rational basis for Christianity and builds an edifice of compassionate morality atop this foundation. As Mr. Lewis clearly demonstrates, Christianity is not a religion of flitting angels and blind faith, but of free will, an innate sense of justice and the grace of God.”
