Story
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 times, but never outdone. Mere Christianity brings together Lewis’s legendary broadcasts from the war years; talks in which he set out simply to ‘"explain and defend the belief that has been common to nearly all Christians at all times."

Story
'If Jesus was not God in human flesh, Christianity is exploded,' writes John Stott. 'We are left with just another religion with some beautiful ideas and noble ethics; its unique distinction has gone.' Who is Jesus Christ? If he is not who he said he was, and if he did not do what he said he had come to do, the whole superstructure of Christianity crumbles in ruin. Is it plausible that Jesus was truly divine? And what would that mean for us?

For 300 years, The Pilgrim's Progress has remained perhaps the best-loved and most read of devotional fictions. In plain yet powerful and moving language, Bunyan tells the story of Christian's struggle to attain salvation and the Gates of Heaven. He must pass through the Slough of Despond, ward off the temptations of Vanity Fair, and fight the monstrous Apollyon. In Part II, his wife and children follow the same path, helped and protected by Great-heart, until for them, too, "the trumpets sound on the other side."

Then Wright attempts a short systematic account of the main theological contours of Paul's thought and its pertinence for the church today.

For centuries people have been tormented by one question above all: if God is good and all-powerful, why does he allow his creatures to suffer pain?

With his signature wealth of compassion and insight, C. S. Lewis offers answers to these crucial questions and shares his hope and wisdom to help heal a world hungry for a true understanding of human nature.

Story
For many years an atheist, C. S. Lewis vividly describes the spiritual quest that convinced him of the truth and reality of Christianity, in his famous autobiography. "In the Trinity Term of 1929 I gave in, and admitted that God was God...perhaps the most dejected and reluctant convert in all England." Thus Lewis describes memorably the crisis of his conversion. Surprised by Joy reveals both that crisis and its momentous conclusion that would determine the shape of Lewis' entire life.

The rise of secular gods presents the most serious challenge to the absolute claims of Christ since the founding of Christianity itself. The Christian worldview has not only been devalued and dismissed by modern culture, but its believers are openly ridiculed as irrelevant. In Jesus Among Secular Gods, Ravi Zacharias and Vince Vitale challenge the popular "isms" of the day, skillfully pointing out the fallacies in their claims and presenting compelling evidence for revealed absolute truth as found in Jesus.

Enlightening and Relevant - A Must Read
- By Doreen on 28-02-17
Summary
The universal symbol of the Christian faith is neither a crib nor a manger, but a gruesome cross. Yet many people are unclear about its meaning, and cannot understand why Christ had to die. In this magisterial and best-selling book, John Stott explains the significance of Christ's cross and answers the objections commonly brought against biblical teaching on the atonement.
John Stott's modern classic is as sharp and pertinent as ever it was. It combines an excellent biblical exposition and a characteristically thoughtful study of Christian belief with a searching call to the church to live under the cross.

Classic Theology
I have enjoyed Stott's very comprehensive and thought provoking exposition of the doctrine of the cross. it's not an ready book to read but then neither is its subject matter. Read it carefully take notes if you can get the editiiin that has a study guide. I am going to listen to it again and I don't think I will be bored at all.

Pithy implications of the cross of Christ
There's a lot to absorb from this book. I feel compelled to get the written version to highlight the many succinct points Stott makes. I'm sure I will listen to this audiobook more than once. It sometimes seems to follow rabbit trails, but always comes back to the cross. Stott treats a lot of heterodox theological issues in juxtaposition to orthodox ones, so it can be hard to follow if you can't listen straight through in one sitting.

Our God Suffered For Us
Not much I can add to the power not just of this book but of what this book is about. There is an eloquence and a depth that John Stott brings to the supreme moment in human history that coalesces human suffering and divine intervention. I finished the last chapter moments ago. And I am brought to tears by just the word picture of that final poem about the scars. Do yourself a big favor and consume this book – either in audio form, or read it. I never plan to, but almost always by the end of a good book like this one I will find a way to get the paper copy. Just so I can read and reread what is on the pages. As this book should, I am drawn to re-read the Gospel accounts of what happened on that day and that afternoon. I loved listening to this book – the British voice is fitting, of course for its author. I cannot recommend this book enough. Mike Hansen Parker, Colorado

Excellent book on the Cross of Christ!
A super informative and thorough book on the cross. He approaches the subject from many different angles and sets forth beautiful truths about God's heart and about the glory of what God has done for us in Christ. Truly the salvation that God has provided for us is totally awesome and amazing. Though this book is quite long I highly recommend it. The only point that I have a substantial disagreement with is where he says that physical healing was not provided in the atonement. I do believe that it was provided. but like I said this is the only major disagreement I have with this book. Other than that this is an awesome book.

So much learning, wisdom and spiritual food. I felt like I had rejoined the Bible school of my youth, only in a more profound and systematic study of the richness of the gospel of the cross. This is a must read for anyone who wants to go deeper in understanding what Christianity is all about.

This is an incredible audible book
This book is a Christian classic, and rightfully so. And I honestly could not think of a better narrator for this particular work than Simon Vance, who seemed to perfectly capture the tone of John Stott’s writing. What we have here is a magnificent classic that, in both content and narration, makes for an enjoyable listen. I’ve listened to a lot of audiobooks, and I rarely comment. But I couldn’t help myself with this production.

Finally I know Him
I enjoyed the deep dive and willingness of the author to show Jesus Christ as He is and what He did for us by all the Grace and Mercy we can possibly imagine. Yeshua chose to save us by losing his life and setting in motion His flock to come back to Him from our evilness and sinful nature. I would highly recommend this to anyone who is DEEPLY troubled and in Suffering. You may have lost a loved one, become separated or divorced, or facing a devastating mental illness or even cancer. A person who has been seeking a deep and profound relationship with someone to truly Love them as they are, when everyone else has only cared about Love of themselves. This book if you let it, will open up your heart into an experience with Jesus Christ you have likely never experienced inside a church, temple or a synagogue. He will break you and build you back up into His loving arms, again. Amen and Amen. Worthy is the Lamb and His Blood that has set me Free. Selah.
