Mere Christianity is C.S. Lewis's forceful and accessible doctrine of Christian belief. First heard as informal radio broadcasts and then published as three separate books — The Case for Christianity, Christian Behavior and Beyond Personality — Mere Christianity brings together what Lewis sees as the fundamental truths of the religion. Rejecting the boundaries that divide Christianity's many denominations, C.S. Lewis finds a common ground on which all those who have Christian faith can stand together, proving that "at the center of each there is something, or a Someone, who against all divergences of belief, all differences of temperament, all memories of mutual persecution, speaks the same voice."

Christ is in Everything

Customer, FL - February 24, 2012

Reading mere Christianity was a very positive and enlightening experience for me. It was very eye opening as I learned about the doctrines of Christianity through a lens outside of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. C.S. Lewis has a very unique way of applying the doctrines of Christianity to all facets of life. He doesn’t get into deep doctrine; instead he emphasizes the simple principles of the gospel. He appeals to anyone and everyone, Christian or non-Christian. The way he wrote the book would trigger anyone of any faith to question where he or she is in life and what they value and how much they put into it. I know it did so for me. He touches on the emotions of the reader as he provides life scenarios to supplement his teaching. These were radio broadcasts during the 1940s in Britain, taking place in WWII. His words added hope and strength to the people. Reading this book 60 years after it was written, it still provides the same kind of hope.
