I’ve avoided this man’s reading for years becuase I thought myself not adequate to absorb it. I’ve been cheating myself. There’s no pretension. I am happy I dove in.
CS Lewis's observations help bridge our moral aspirations with the practicality of today's life on earth. These are incredibly valuable readings to ponder: they certainly do not define our faith - the Cross and Christ's atoning sacrifice alone does that - but as so many of us generally tend to see our spiritual lives as completely unrelated to this carnal existence, Lewis allows us to see a way to find relevance of one for the other. One does not have to agree completely with all of his theological views to derive enormous value from these words.
