Dios En El Banquillo – (Spanish)
$18.99Add to cartUn libro valiente, sutil y agudo sobre los milagros, la relacion entre la ciencia y la fe, la redencion o el destino final del hombre.
“Lewis me parecio el hombre mas completamente convertido que he conocido”, observa Walter Hooper en el prefacio de esta coleccion de ensayos de C. S. Lewis.
“Toda su vision de la vida era tal que lo natural y lo sobrenatural parecian inseparablemente combinados”. Es precisamente este cristianismo omnipresente el que se demuestra en los cuarenta y ocho ensayos que componen Dios en el banquillo. Aqui Lewis se dirige tanto a cuestiones teologicas como a las que Hooper denomina “semiteologicas” o eticas. Pero ya sea que este discutiendo El mal y Dios, Milagros, La decadencia de la religion o La teoria humanitaria del castigo, su vision y observaciones son total y profundamente cristianas.
Extraidos de una variedad de fuentes, los ensayos fueron diseados para satisfacer una variedad de necesidades y, entre otros logros, sirven para ilustrar los muchos angulos diferentes desde los cuales podemos ver la religion cristiana. Van desde piezas relativamente populares escritas para periodicos hasta defensas mas eruditas de la fe que aparecieron por primera vez en The Socratic Digest. Caracterizados por la honestidad y el realismo de Lewis, su perspicacia y conviccion y, sobre todo, su total compromiso con el cristianismo, estos ensayos hacen de Dios en el banquillo un libro muy adecuado para nuestro tiempo.

A brave, subtle, and sharp book about miracles, the science-faith relationship, redemption or man’s final destiny
“Lewis struck me as the most thoroughly converted man I ever met”, observes Walter Hooper in the preface to this collection of essays by C. S. Lewis.
“His whole vision of life was such that the natural and the supernatural seemed inseparably combined.” It is precisely this pervasive Christianity which is demonstrated in the forty-eight essays comprising God in the Dock. Here Lewis addresses himself both to theological questions and to those which Hooper terms “semi-theological,” or ethical. But whether he is discussing “Evil and God,” “Miracles,” “The Decline of Religion,” or “The Humanitarian Theory of Punishment,” his insight and observations are thoroughly and profoundly Christian.
Drawn from a variety of sources, the essays were designed to meet a variety of needs, and among other accomplishments they serve to illustrate the many different angles from which we can view the Chr

Surprised By Joy
$16.99Add to cartA repackaged edition of the revered author’s spiritual memoir, in which he recounts the story of his divine journey and eventual conversion to Christianity.
C. S. Lewis–the great British writer, scholar, lay theologian, broadcaster, Christian apologist, and bestselling author of Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, The Great Divorce, The Chronicles of Narnia, and many other beloved classics–takes readers on a spiritual journey through his early life and eventual embrace of the Christian faith. Lewis begins with his childhood in Belfast, surveys his boarding school years and his youthful atheism in England, reflects on his experience in World War I, and ends at Oxford, where he became “the most dejected and reluctant convert in all England.” As he recounts his lifelong search for joy, Lewis demonstrates its role in guiding him to find God.
