Product Description
Mere Christianity is adapted from a series of BBC radio broadcasts from an otherwise obscure Oxford literature professor during the 1940s. Over time, the book has earned universal acclaim as a classic in C. S. Lewis’ career and staple of religious literature.
Combining his deep and extensive classical learning with an easy and familiar style of writing, Lewis explains in learned but plain language the basic principles of what Christians believe, what they should do, and how they can defend their faith.
Though Lewis covers much of the same apologetic ground as writer and theologian G. K. Chesterton, Mere Christianity is most notable for its accessibility. Historian Richard Brookhiser once wrote, “Chesterton addresses a crowd or a rally; Lewis addresses you. Chesterton charts the world; Lewis grasps your lapel.”
Check out all the Educational Resources that Memoria Press has to offer. Classical education is the cultivation of wisdom and virtue through the study of the liberal arts and the Great Books. The liberal arts are the universal linguistic and mathematical skills students need to excel in every area of life. The Great Books are the means by which we pass on the cultural heritage of the Christian West. A mastery of both is the best way to prepare a child for a life of wisdom and virtue, and Memoria Press’ beautiful and comprehensive classical Christian curriculum provides the tools for mastering these two essential elements of education.
