Publisher's Summary

One of the most popular and beloved introductions to the concept of faith ever written, Mere Christianity has sold millions of copies worldwide.

This audiobook brings together C. S. Lewis' legendary radio broadcasts during the war years, in which he set out simply to "explain and defend the belief that has been common to nearly all Christians at all times."

Rejecting the boundaries that divide Christianity's many denominations, Mere Christianity provides an unequalled opportunity for believers and nonbelievers alike to absorb a powerful, rational case for the Christian faith.

Surprisingly Easy Listen

I was thinking that this would be an extremely heavy listen with difficult theology, but CS Lewis took some very difficult concepts and made them simple to understand.

Great!

Amazing book. What a gift for everyone to read. Highly recommended if you’re verging on faith, don’t know much about Christianity or even if you are already a believer

Probably one of my favorite books.

Honestly I recommend anyone who has any interest in Christianity reads this book. Whether or not you are a Christian, or just have a vague interest in Christian theology, Lewis makes complex theological ideas simple.

Superb book. Extraordinary performance.

This classic is by far one of the most influential books in the domain of Christian literature and apologetics.

The author elegantly lays out, always through logical reasoning and down-to-earth analogies, the main principles that make Christian faith.

For believers, skepticals, non-Christians and even atheists, as the author is always respectful with the position of the reader.

The performance is elegant and easy to listen to. A slight British accent echoes the origins of the author without hindering comprehension of those used to American English.

A real jewel for those interested in better understanding Christianity, either Christians or not.

I cannot recommend it enough!
