HarperSanFrancisco, February 2001. Paper Back. New. Perhaps Christianity does not so much need to be defended as to be accurately described. If this is the case our candidate for most accurate description and most universal intelligibility is this book. Originally a series of radio broadcasts, <i>Mere Christianity</i> retains a humble conversational tone without sacrificing the essential philosophical and theological soundness and depth of Lewis's thought. 175 pp.

HarperSanFrancisco, March 2001. Paper Back. New. About George MacDonald, C.S. Lewis wrote 'I know hardly any other writer who seems to be closer, or more continually close, to the Spirit of Christ Himself.' In this book, Lewis offers 365 selections from MacDonald's work, ranging from 'Inexorable Love' to 'The Torment of Death,' from 'Immorality' to 'Peace in Our Time.' Besides being a remarkable mythologist and devotional writer in his own right, Lewis said that he had never written a book that didn't quote from George MacDonald (and you might recall he takes on the Virgilian role of guide through heaven in Lewis' <i>The Great Divorce</i>).

HarperSanFrancisco, April 2001. Paper Back. New. Lewis's masterful defense of the existence of objective moral absolutes, and his warning of the danger of ignoring their existence in educating the young, has the rare quality of having been made prophetic by the passage of time (see <i>Why Johnny Can't Tell Right from Wrong</i>).The appendix, a comparison of the fundamental commonalities of the moral codes of the great religious traditions of the world, is instructive and convincing.

HarperSanFrancisco, April 2001. Paper Back. New. Selected from sermons delivered by C.S. Lewis during World War II, these nine addresses show the author and theologian bringing hope and courage in a time of great doubt. 'The Weight of Glory,' considered by many to be Lewis's finest sermon of all, is an incomparable explication of virtue, goodness, desire, and glory. Also included are 'Transposition,' 'On Forgiveness,' 'Why I Am Not a Pacifist,' and 'Learning in War-Time,' in which Lewis presents his compassionate vision of Christianity in language that is both lucid and compelling. 132 pp.
