Mere Christianity

by C.S. Lewis

Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis is a collection of BBC radio talks Lewis gave during World War II (WWII). These talks, and subsequently the book, were meant to give a defense of Christian doctrines and beliefs in a clear and logical way. They were especially meant to reason with those skeptical of Christianity's claims.

Lewis chose the title Mere Christianity to indicate that he believed the writings it contained boiled Christianity down to its basic, most essential beliefs. In other words, it is a mere Christianity summary, the things one needs to agree with to be a Christian. He purposefully avoided getting into matters of denomination but attempted to put together the beliefs that the vast majority of Christian denominations could agree upon. He begins the book by first making an argument for God's existence. He then goes on to enumerate Christian doctrinal beliefs, Christian behavioral standards, and finally, the doctrine of the Trinity.
