About this book

Discover the mind of C. S. Lewis in one essential volume--hundreds of his sharpest, most illuminating insights on faith and life, gathered in a single anthology.For readers who love C. S. Lewis but don't know where to start--or longtime fans who want his wisdom in one place--A Mind Awake is the answer. This anthology draws from the full breadth of Lewis's work, including Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, The Chronicles of Narnia, his letters, poetry, and essays, and organizes hundreds of passages by theme rather than by title. That makes it both a browsable daily reader and a serious reference for anyone studying Lewis's thought. Nearly sixty years after its first publication, it remains one of the most trusted introductions to his ideas, prized for making a towering intellect accessible one page at a time.Topics covered include: Human nature, sin, and pride God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit The Bible and Christian belief Suffering, heaven, and hell Love and friendship Nature, myth, and creation Faith in a secular, post-Christian world Readers who found clarity and comfort in Mere Christianity or Lewis's letters will find A Mind Awake a natural companion--less a book to read start to finish than one to keep within reach, open to any page, and return to for decades. It's an ideal gift for confirmation, graduation, or anyone walking through doubt, grief, or a season of searching, and a must-have reference for pastors, students, and book clubs digging into Lewis's legacy.Whether you're new to C. S. Lewis or have read him for years, A Mind Awake offers a lifetime of Christian wisdom, faith, and insight--organized, and ready whenever you need it.
