Hi, everybody. Welcome to Tumnus’s Book Shelf, where we review any and all books relating to CS Lewis and the Chronicles of Narnia . For today’s review, we will be looking at CS Lewis’ Christian Reflections.
Author: CS Lewis
Editor: Walter Hooper
Publisher: Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing Company (January 1994)
ISBN-10: 0802808697
ISBN-13: 978-0802808691
Summary:
Here is a collection of the earliest short essay written by CS Lewis dealing with Christian doctrine, theology, and church traditions. Quick, concise, and to the point, they offer not only insights into many relevant topics, but show a glimpse at times of CS Lewis in his formative stages of his faith. We also get a rare glimpse of CS Lewis as a key writer of early sci-fi on the subject of space travel.
Review:
One thing that makes Christian reflections stand out so well, is the fact that largely many of the essays presented predate Lewis writing such notable works as Mere Christianity, Abolition of Man, and the rest of his works on theology and ethics . As such we see the ground work for many of his theological and ethical views.
This collection itself was put together after his death and is wonderfully complied.
