“Maybe this is what barbarians look like. (They look like everybody else.) That being said, one person‘s “barbarian” is another person‘s “just doing what everybody else is doing.” (How many can be expected to do better than that?)

The Sting of the Wild | Justin O. Schmidt

I decided to read this after listening to an episode of the podcast Sawbones where they discuss stinging insects. I never imagined I would learn this much about bugs, or that I would enjoy the learning. But here we are, and now I have even more fear (and respect) for stinging things. And this author was insane. I can‘t imagine letting anything sting me just to see how painful it is. But it makes for a good story!

The Problem of Pain | C. S. Lewis

Found this interesting. Some of C.S. Lewis's arguments could be difficult to follow. While I might not agree with every point, I still found the book thought-provoking.

This book is gutting and yet full of hope. The awful story of Levi Lusko‘s daughter dying just before Christmas is just so heartbreaking. Seeing how her family coped, what they chose to do, is incredible - I don‘t know that I could do it. A very inspiring story for any of us who have experienced the worst news ever. Great on audio ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I've been working my way through this. Besides the "Narnia" series, it's the first C.S. Lewis book I've read.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I feel like every review of Lewis nonfiction for me could be the same: it takes some work, but it's worth it.
You can trust Lewis to build (and build and build) an argument in a way that is logical, philosophical, and tongue-in-cheek and then bring you to a conclusion that has you more sure than ever of Christ and God's goodness.
This book was written 84 years ago, but its message is timeless.

“Not many years ago when I was an atheist, if anyone had asked me, ‘Why do you not believe in God?‘ my reply would have run something like this: ‘Look at the universe we live in.‘”
