this is a most interesting book by C S Lewis. Quite different from Narnia and Scewtape Letters.

I need to reread God In The Dock!

There are many interesting essays here, however I’m not overly convinced that all of them are a direct link to The Search for God theme. However I am encouraged to again reread God In The Dock.

I do enjoy C.S. Lewis, so I did enjoy these essays.

Relevant for today

Oh my goodness do we need this man’s thinking today. Really concise, developed arguments and commentary.
I could listen to him all day!
