Description
C. S. Lewis excelled at plumbing the depths of the human heart, both the good and the bad, the beautiful and the corrupt. From science fiction and fantasy to essays, letters, and works of apologetics, Lewis has offered a wealth of insight into how to live the Christian life.
In this book, Rigney explores the center of Lewis’s vision for the Christian life—the personal encounter between the human self and the living God. In prayer, in the church, in the imagination, in our natural loves, in our pleasures and our sorrows, God brings us into his presence so that we can become fully human: alive, free, and whole, transformed into the image of Jesus Christ.
- Focuses on major themes that run through Lewis’s writings, such as how we know God, the unmasking of our true selves, Lewis's view of prayer, and the contrast between true and false community
- Exposes readers to some of Lewis’s lesser-known writings
- Practically applies Lewis’s theology to a reader's walk with God
