“”"Geoffrey Howard’s performance is superb; he is clear and unhurried,
giving just the right emphasis and/or inflection. . . .Whether or not one agrees with
Lewis’s arguments, it is a pleasure to hear such a skillful reading of an eloquent
work.”"Library Journal
“”This recording captures Lewis’s finely crafted arguments and opinions. The growing
number of new Lewis fans as well as those already familiar with his work should be
more than satisfied. In this version, narrator Howard’s melodic, subtly Britishaccented
voice could easily have been Lewis’s own.”"Today’s Librarian
Mere Christianity is C. S. Lewis’s forceful and accessible doctrine of Christian belief.
First heard as informal radio broadcasts and then published as three separate books
The Case for Christianity, Christian Behavior, and Beyond Personality
Mere Christianity brings together what Lewis sees as the fundamental truths of religion.
Rejecting the boundaries that divide Christianity’s many denominations, C. S. Lewis finds a
common ground on which all those who have Christian faith can stand together, proving that
“”at the center of each there is something, or a Someone, who against all divergences of
belief, all differences of temperament, all memories of mutual persecution, speaks with the
same voice.”"
Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963) was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland and was educated at Cherbourg House, Malvern College, and Oxford. He was professor of medieval and renaissance English at the University of Cambridge. His conversion from atheism to Christianity in 1931 resulted in a flow of outstanding theological books but it was The Chronicles of Narnia that he became best known for.
Geoffrey Howard is a retired British journalist who strives to add warmth and clarity to every audiobook. Says Howard, “”I try to bring the listener as close as possible to the experience I’m having while reading it for the first time.”"”
