Welcome to Litsy!

Lewis truly had a gift to break down complex issues into bit-size understandable chunks.

Looking into the what, the how and the Who behind some questions everyone asks themselves at one point in their lives; and explaining in a sensible manner the why behind Christianity

Random book from our home library:

📖 The Christian Mind by Harry Blamires

I started reading this with my Bible study group (years ago) and I kept telling myself I would pick it back up. It is a difficult read in which I would have to keep looking up words to even know what I was reading. With my busy life I need to be more realistic and decided to finally bail on picking this back up.

Recent acquisition:

📖 Simply Christian: Why Christianity Makes Sense by N. T. Wright

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.

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.‘”
