What Christians Believe

What Christians Believe is a succinct statement of doctrine from one of Christianity''s most beloved thinkers. In these classic essays, which began as talks on the BBC during World War II, C.S. Lewis explains the basic tenets of Christianity. Clearly and simply, the master storyteller and essayist tackles the central questions: Who was Jesus? What did he accomplish? And what does it mean for me? Taken from the core section of Mere Christianity, this gift edition provides a wider audience with an accessible way to discover these timeless truths. For those seeking out a snapshot of Christianity, or those who just wish to remind themselves of the things they hold true, this book is a wonderful introduction to the faith. Clive Staples Lewis (1898-1963) was born in Belfast. He was a fellow and tutor in English Literature at Magdalen College, Oxford, and was later Professor of Medieval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge University, where he remained until his death. Lewis''s most distinguished and popular accomplishments include The Chronicles of Narnia, Out of the Silent Planet, The Four Loves, The Screwtape Letters, and Mere Christianity.
