Mere Christianity Journal » (First Edition)

C. S. Lewis was famous both as a fiction writer and as a Christian thinker, and scholars sometimes divide his personality in two. Yet a large part of Lewis's appeal, for both his audiences, lay in his ability to fuse imagination with instruction. "Let the pictures tell you their own moral," he once advised writers of children's stories. "But if they don't show you any moral, don't put one in."

The Mere Christianity Journal is a handsome companion to one of Lewis’s most popular and influential works. A thoughtful guide to the central issues Lewis raises, this journal provides Lewis readers with a guide for deeper reflection. Features include an elegant interior design, ample quotes from Mere Christianity, questions centered on Lewis’s wise words, and plenty of room for reader’s thoughts and ideas. Like Mere Christianity, the journal is broken into four sections with a total of thirty-three chapters corresponding to the book.

“As we witness Lewis develop we find that these volumes are working as a kind of unconscious autobiography.”
