"Mere Christianity" is one of the greatest apologetics for Christianity there is. When I was first coming to know Jesus several years ago, my wife (girlfriend back then) gave me "Mere Christianity" to read. I was blown away. Lewis has a relentless, steady, plodding, hammering way of making his points, and it leaves them irrefutable.

Agreed. 'Mere Christianity' is a must-read.

And, having risen out of short talks given on BBC radio during WWII
to a country casting off Christianity for the gospels of modernism and socialism...
...all the more timely for Americans after 9-11.

And to think that Mere Christianity is a compilation of radio addresses. Who in our present world would be able to concentrate for thirty minutes to listen, much less comprehend, what Lewis was saying?

I'm reading it now. I've never quite believed because it all seemed illogical. Lewis's logical approach is v ery helpful.
