C.S. Lewis Collection
Both believers and non-believers among your friends will enjoy the brilliant writing of this master storyteller. C.S. Lewis wrote highly entertaining and deeply illuminating books that explored the nature of good and evil, and this collection includes writings from three of his most imaginative and intelligent works.
What Christians Believe: In these classic essays, which began as talks on the BBC during World War II, Lewis creatively and simply explains the basic tenets of Christianity. Taken from the core section of Mere Christianity, the selections provide an accessible way for more people to discover the timeless truths of our faith.
Made for Heaven: A keen insight into our souls characterizes the writings of C.S. Lewis. From his Chronicles of Narnia to Mere Christianity, his writings continually return to the theme of heaven as our true home, the land we have been searching for our whole lives. This volume includes some of Lewis’s most beautiful and profound writing.
Paved with Good Intentions: The demon Wormwood first became famous through his correspondence with his uncle Screwtape, published in The Screwtape Letters. We are now privileged to peruse his field notebook, complete with scribbles, notes and excerpts from his uncle’s letters. It’s a “best of Screwtape” that offers witty and cutting strategies for how best to corrupt a brand new Christian and steal him from God.
If you’re looking for a very special gift for the special people in your life—this is it.

Big Thoughts in Little Books
January 21, 2010
These small, six-by-four-inch hardcover books are great for giving to people who have not read the complete SCREWTAPE LETTERS, MERE CHRISTIANITY, WEIGHT OF GLORY, PROBLEM OF PAIN, or THE GREAT DIVORCE. These three little books contain excerpts that even the reluctant reader can digest in thirty minutes each. WHAT CHRISTIANS BELIEVE is actually the whole "Book 2" out of 4 Books in MERE CHRISTIANITY; it reads word-for-word exactly like Book 2; this would be great to give to someone seeking the truth. My personal favorite was PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS; the letter format of THE SCREWTAPE LETTERS has been changed to being like a Field Manual; some of the dated archaic situations are deleted. These are great little books, but still there is nothing as good as reading C.S. Lewis' whole works as they were originally written.

Apologetics/Apologist
July 06, 2009
I had wondered about the terms "apologetics" and "apologist", wondering why there would need to be apologies for the Bible... Then I discovered that is the term for DEFENDING the Truth of the Bible. I keep one of these little books in my purse for reading in those times I spend waiting - for service, meetings, etc. They are a must read for anyone wanting to better understand their walk with Christ. C.S. Lewis had a profound intimacy with Jesus and wanted others to understand. Mr. Lewis helps us understand the whys of Christianity.

A Must read for any Christian
May 24, 2008
Paved with Good Intentions will open your mind to what most people won't see. The fact that demons attack all of us. A little hard to read at first until you understand that its written backwards from a deamons point of view. These books will leave you better equipted and ready for everyday battle. A must read for any Christian, both new or seasoned veteran. God Bless
