Description

Review "This charming volume of quotes from C.S. Lewis's works includes his Christian apologia (Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, Surprised by Joy) and his fiction (The Chronicles of Narnia, "The Space Trilogy"). Editors Assaf and Leahy have selected brief quotations and placed them in thematic groupings relevant to modern Christians, such as "Living a Full Life with Christ" and "Recognizing Sin." Quotes are mainly short but pack punches: "Gratitude looks to the past and love to the present; fear, avarice, lust, and ambition look ahead"; "As image and apprehension are in organic unity, so, for a Christian, are human body and human soul." A complete Lewis bibliography is included for those interested in following up on works quoted. Also provided are several blank pages at the end of the volume for readers to jot their own thoughts. These well-chosen Lewis quotes will inspire readers and prompt them to make their own spiritual reflections." --Publishers Weekly, (Sept. 2018) ― Reviews Product Description A USA Today bestseller!"These well-chosen Lewis quotes will inspire readers and prompt them to make their own spiritual reflections." —Publishers WeeklyNovelist, poet, critic, lay theologian, and best-selling author of the 'Narnia' series, C.

Lewis' Little Book of Wisdom:"If God had granted all the silly prayers I've made in my life, where should I be now?""Surely arrested development consists not in refusing to lose old things, but in failing to add new things…""Do not dare not to dare.""We are mirrors whose brightness is wholly derived from the sun that shines upon us.""I didn't go to religion to make me happy. I always knew a bottle of Port would do that. If you want a religion to make you feel really comfortable, I certainly don't recommend Christianity." About the Author C. S. Lewis (November 29, 1898-November 22, 1963) was a British novelist, poet, academic, medievalist, literary critic, essayist, lay theologian, broadcaster, lecturer, and Christian apologist.
