C. S. Lewis
Selected from sermons delivered by C. S. Lewis during World War II, these nine addresses show the beloved author and theologian bringing hope and courage in a time of great doubt. "The Weight of Glory", considered by many to be Lewis’s finest sermon of all, is an incomparable explication of virtue, goodness, desire, and glory.
Also included are: “Transposition”, “On Forgiveness”, “Why I Am Not a Pacifist”, and “Learning in War-Time”, in which Lewis presents his compassionate vision of Christianity in language that is both lucid and compelling.
Clive Staples (C. S.) Lewis (1898–1963) was one of the intellectual giants of the 20th century and arguably the most influential Christian writer of his day. His major contributions in literary criticism, children’s literature, fantasy literature, and popular theology brought him international renown and acclaim. He wrote more than 30 books, and his works continue to attract thousands of new readers every year. His most distinguished and popular accomplishments include The Chronicles of Narnia, Out of the Silent Planet, The Screwtape Letters, and Mere Christianity.

While fixing our eyes on heaven, he never neglects practical councils on how to get there. His erudition brings the largest questions into focus, while his honesty makes us more honest, addressing the stumbling blocks we encounter every day (after all, they were his stumbling blocks, too). These talks are an antidote to despair, a reminder of hope, and a key to sanity. And they could have no better reader than Ralph Cosham.

The narrator, Ralph Cosham, has the perfect voice for this collection. The only possible drawback to listening to the Audible version is that you will be wishing you had a pencil with which to highlight many passages that "get it just right." Any Lewis fan will enjoy listening to the Audible version, but will certainly want to acquire a printed copy as well, to return to every time you need that "perfect quotation."
