C.S. Lewis: Author of Mere Christianity
He took the starch out of being a Christian.
Respected scholar and teacher at Oxford and Cambridge universities, prolific writer of science fiction, literary criticism, and poetry, and a committed atheist during the first half of his life, C.S. Lewis is acclaimed as one of the greatest Christian thinkers of the twentieth century.
To explain the Christian faith- and to unite Christians of widely differing backgrounds- he presented "mere Christianity," the faith that is the center of the Gospel, freed of denominational and historical constraints. To explain the Christian faith, Lewis brought into focus what had become blurred: The identity and mission of Jesus of Nazareth.
Author of Mere Christianity, The Chronicles of Narnia, The Screwtape Letters, and many more well-known classics of Christian literature, Lewis's story is one of faith and courage, and of joy that once discovered, cannot be ignored.
