Mere Christianity

In Mere Christianity, C.S. Lewis distills the essence of the Christian faith, aiming to present “mere” Christianity—the shared core beliefs held by Christians of all traditions. Drawing from his wartime BBC broadcasts, Lewis begins by arguing for the existence of a moral law and a divine Lawgiver, then explains Christian doctrines such as the Trinity, the incarnation of Christ, and salvation. He also explores practical Christian living, covering virtues like faith, hope, and charity, as well as moral issues and personal transformation. With clarity, wit, and logical reasoning, Lewis makes a compelling case for Christianity as both intellectually credible and spiritually transformative.

Specific Detail Info

Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis was first published in 1952 by Geoffrey Bles, adapted from a series of BBC radio talks Lewis delivered between 1941 and 1944. The book, written in English and spanning around 227 pages in most editions, presents a rational case for the core beliefs of Christianity, stripped of denominational differences. Divided into four parts—Right and Wrong as a Clue to the Meaning of the Universe, What Christians Believe, Christian Behaviour, and Beyond Personality—the work blends reason, analogy, and moral philosophy to appeal to both believers and skeptics. Modern editions are widely available from HarperOne and other publishers, with various ISBNs depending on the format.
