About the book
During the Second World War, C. S. Lewis gave a series of BBC radio talks, and the book gathers that material first published as three separate volumes, including Christian Behaviour and Beyond Personality. Lewis avoids contested doctrine and focuses on the core beliefs shared across denominations. It has four parts: arguments for the existence of God, built on a moral law known to all people; a defence of Christian theology that includes his trilemma of liar, lunatic or Lord; Christian ethics, among them the cardinal and theological virtues; and the Christian idea of God. The work has been translated into more than thirty languages.
Anoop Anthony, CTO and co-founder of Sapaad, described it as above all a rational work, noting that Lewis, once an atheist himself, approaches God through clear, accessible reasoning.

Anoop Anthony (CTO & Co-Founder/Sapaad)
"Mere Christianity" is first and foremost a rational book — it is in many ways the opposite of a traditional religious tome. Lewis, who was once an atheist, has been on both sides of the table, and he approaches the notion of God with accessible, clear thinking. The book reveals that experiencing God doesn't have to be a mystical exercise; God can be a concrete and logical conclusion. Lewis was a man of formidable intellect, and he brought it all to bear in this phenomenal book on the rationality of faith.
