Overview
From his autobiography Surprised by Joy and children's classic The Chronicles of Narnia, from his poems and novels, from his literary criticism and theological explorations, C. S. Lewis has laid down, albeit unwittingly, a spirituality that the "mere Christian" - something of an invention of Lewis's - can live with from Monday through Saturday. On Sunday, Lewis would expect the mere Christian to be in his or her own church. In this book, Bill Griffin, renowned Lewis scholar and biographer, captures the spirituality from Lewis's own writings and presents it in a manner reminiscent of Lewis's own.From his autobiography Surprised by Joy to the much-loved Chronicles of Narnia to his works of literary criticism, C.S. Lewis is one of the best known and loved witnesses for Christianity in our time. Here, through Lewis's own words and a thematic analysis of his many books, the reader will be rewarded by the illumination of the rich spiritual currents that run throughout his body of work.
