Overview

C. S. Lewis's Mere Christianity is renowned for its powerful, rational defense of the Christian faith, exploring foundational truths that have guided seekers for generations. Originally delivered as legendary radio broadcasts during World War II, this timeless classic continues to shape the way we understand morality, human nature, marriage, sin, forgiveness, faith, and hope. In Lunatic, Liar, or Lord, theologian and popular Benedictine College professor Andrew Swafford brings fresh insight to Lewis's work, making it even more engaging and relevant for today's audiences. Swafford examines Mere Christianity through the lens of Catholic teaching, revealing how Lewis's arguments naturally point to the truth found in the Church. Through this thought-provoking exploration, you'll wrestle with life's biggest questions, including Why should I care about God?, Are there compelling reasons to believe?, Does Catholicism best explain my experiences?, Can faith truly transform my life?, and Who is Jesus, and how can we be sure? More than just an analysis, Lunatic, Liar, or Lord is an invitation to experience Catholicism in a way that speaks to both the heart and the mind. With clarity, depth, and intellectual rigor, Swafford helps you see faith through a transformative new lens―one that respects reason while nurturing belief.
