“Mere Christianity” is a classic.

Lewis would disagree. :) He had a rather long conversation about the differences between allegory and applicability :)

Also “the screwtape letters”...somewhere on the internet is a rendition of John Cleese reading them, he does a MARVELOUS job....really brings the book “home”, as he does it so splendidly in character.

If you can read the book while listening to Cleese read it, you will benefit tremendously.
