Summary

2012 marks the 60th Anniversary of the publication of C.S.Lewis’s classic, Mere Christianity. Having sold over half a million copies in the UK alone, his overview of Christianity has been imitated many time, but never bettered.

One of the most popular and beloved introductions to the concept of faith ever written, Mere Christianity has sold millions of copies worldwide.

The book brings together C.S. Lewis’s legendary radio broadcasts during the war years, in which he set out simply to ‘explain and defend the belief that has been common to nearly all Christians at all times’. A brilliant collection, the book remains strikingly fresh for the modern reader and at the same time confirms C. S. Lewis’s reputation as one of the leading writer and thinkers of our age.

Rejecting the boundaries that divide Christianity’s many denominations, Mere Christianity provides an unequalled opportunity for believers and nonbelievers alike to absorb a powerful, rational case for the Christian faith. This scintiallating collection confirms C.S. Lewis’s reputation as one of the leading writers and thinkers of our age.

Critic reviews

“He has quite a unique power for making theology an attractive, exciting and fascinating quest.” Times Literary Supplement

“Lewis seeks in Mere Christianity to help us see religion with fresh eyes, as a radical faith whose adherents might be likened to an underground group gathering in a war zone, a place where evil seems to have the upper hand, to hear messages of hope from the other side.” Kathleen Norris

A great book, but this exact same recording is free on YouTube, and has links to the sections and chapters which Audible, either due to negligence or a bug, bafflingly lacks.

The book is outstanding, a real Christian classics. Unfortunately the reader is breathing very loud, which is very annoying. The book is very recommended, but not this version.

Outstanding book, but not read well.

I really enjoyed listening to Mere Christianity and it has inspired me to take the time to go and read the dead tree version of the book, so that I can more readily stop and think about all the illustrations Lewis uses.

I did feel though that the narrator did not really enjoy recording this book and sometimes I had to really concentrate to stay present while listening.

Very helpful book - a real classic
