 Rating:  - Recommend the writer to everyoneBook was in okay shape but the material inside is a must for anyone seeking truth. Rating: - Beautiful and Mentally SatisfyingReading this book I gained a logical confirmation of the natural beliefs of the heart, which in modern times are increasingly condemned as illogical. The best scholarly defense of religion/morality in general and Christianity in particular I've read! To make the most out of it, read "The Everlasting Man" by G.K.

Who of us has not prayed these prayers, even those of us who are atheists (which group has at times included me, and has also included ... Read More Rating: - Wow. What a life changerI truly recommend this book to anyone who wants to walk in a manner worth of the Lord. I tend to be very hard on myself in my walk with God. This book helps me to put my walk with God in a proper perspective. I plan on reading this book once a year to remind myself of the principles that Mr. Lewis has taught me. |
