Nov 24: Mere Christianity: Book I, Chapters 1-3
On Sunday, Nov. 24, 4:00-5:30 p.m., we'll continue with Mere Christianity. We are taking our time discussing its sections. On Nov. 24, we will discuss Book I, Chapters 1-3.
BOOK I: Chapter 1, paragraph 2 excerpt:
Quarrelling means trying to show that the other man is in the wrong. And there would be no sense in trying to do that unless you and he had some sort of agreement as to what Right and Wrong are; just as there would be no sense in saying that a footballer had committed a foul unless there was some agreement about the rules of football.
Mere Christianity includes a preface and four books, each of which has chapters.
Joel Heck's resource page has his Mere Christianity: Uncommon Truth in Common Language ppt available as a download. The ppt is an excellent introduction to the study of Mere Christianity, explaining its title, influence, and characteristics.
Pints With Jack has a Mere Christianity resource page with links to quotation graphics, commentary, podcasts, and videos, including a C. S. Lewis Institute lecture series with Chris Mitchell.
Central Texas C. S. Lewis is a reading group that meets in Austin, Texas.
