What if you could ask C. S. Lewis his thoughts on some of the most difficult questions of life? If you could, the result would be Dr. Alister McGrath’s provocative and perceptive book, If I Had Lunch with C. S. Lewis. Best-selling author, prominent academic, and sought-after speaker, Dr. McGrath sees C. S. Lewis as the perfect conversation companion for the persistent meaning-of-life questions everyone asks. What makes Lewis a good dialogue partner is that his mind traveled through a wide and varied terrain: from atheism of his early life to his conversion later in life; from his rational skepticism to his appreciation of value of human desires and imagination; from his role as a Christian apologist during World War II to his growth as a celebrated author of classic children’s literature. The questions Lewis pondered persist today: Does life have meaning? Does God exist? Can reason and imagination be reconciled? Why does God allow suffering? Let McGrath be your insightful guide to an intriguing conversation with Lewis about the ultimate questions.

Although many people today reject Christianity for intellectual reasons, greater numbers of people are rejecting Christianity because it does not engage their imagination. Christians must not only demonstrate that the Christian worldview is true, but that it is also good, beautiful, and relevant. The Good News of the Return of the King: The Gospel in Middle-earth is a book that endeavors to show the truth, goodness, and beauty of Jesus Christ, the gospel, and the biblical metanarrative by engaging the imagination through J. R. R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings, as well as The Hobbit and The Silmarillion. In this book, I propose that J. R. R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings is a story about what Jesus’ parables are about: the good news about the return of the king. As a work of imaginative fiction similar to Jesus’ parables, The Lord of the Rings can bypass both intellectual and imaginative objections to the gospel and pull back the “veil of familiarity” that obscures the gospel for many.

How can preachers preach biblically faithful sermons that move listeners to positive action? An author on the cutting edge of contemporary homiletics and theology offers a fresh approach to preaching that helps listeners see themselves as actors in God's grand drama. Ahmi Lee presents a unifying "third way" in homiletical approaches (i.e., theodramatic) that reimagines the preacher's role in relation to the Bible, the congregation, and the world. The book not only helps students understand various preaching models but also is relevant to working preachers who want to critique and improve their approach. Foreword by Mark Labberton.

This anthology covers thirteen centuries of Christian poetry from the ancient Dream of the Rood to modern poems by T. S. Eliot and C. S. Lewis. I can think of no one better qualified to assemble an anthology of Christian devotional poetry than Elizabeth Marlow. She not only knows this poetry well but has taught it for many years to appreciative students. Best of all, she loves and serves the Lord to whom the poems in this collection direct the gaze of our souls. With this anthology, she has given us a tool with which to stir up the embers of our hearts, that our love for the triune God might blaze all the brighter. I highly recommend this collection. —Greg Bailey, Director of Editorial, Crossway Books I am chastened by comments in the preface to this book: “If we don’t read, reflect on, and enjoy the great wealth of Christian poetry available to us, these poetic gems will eventually be consigned to academic libraries and forgotten by the majority of the reading public.” Apart from reading and singing psalms and hymns, I have not been an avid reader of poetry. I confess this to my shame, and recently I determined to address this appalling shortcoming in my life. Elizabeth Marlow’s anthology of poetry is the ideal antidote. I am excited to recommend this anthology of thirteen centuries of English poetry. Just look at the table of contents, and your appetite will be whetted. So join me in learning to love God better by reading these selections. —Dr. Joseph A. Pipa, President of Greenville Theological Seminary, Professor of Systematic and Homiletical Theology, Greenville, SC

The realities of pain and suffering are often far greater than we could have imagined. And even though God has promised to work all things together for good, sometimes it can seem as if that's never going to happen. In God's Mysterious Ways, Gary Inrig walks you through the Old Testament story of Joseph, offering fresh perspectives on one of the most insightful examples of divine care. God worked not only through the faithfulness of Joseph, but also through the sinfulness of Joseph's brothers. Carefully examining the twists and turns of Joseph's life in light of God's sovereignty, this book speaks words of hope to those who see or experience suffering. It offers a message of grace and a gentle reminder that, no matter what your circumstances seem to tell you, God's will prevails—His purposes can be trusted and His promises never fail.

In a world marked by bias and prejudice and a blatant disregard for truth, Andrew Joosse writes of faith-the hope and assurance which it brings. He conveys that, in the words of Martin Luther, "Life is not righteous, but growth in righteousness; is not health but healing... we are not yet what we shall be, but we are growing toward it." In believing, we find what we see is not all there is: we are not yet what we shall be, but we are growing toward it. In faith, we find "assurance about what we do not see" (Hebrews 11:1). We see this faith portrayed in the Gospel, in what Jesus was about. It is not produced in moral living, but it results in moral living. It is captured not by good intentions, but by love and respect for the people with whom we rub elbows-on the street, in the workplace, in the home. It is offered freely when we turn to God and confess our need, and it is marked by trust that the One who gives faith is also faithful.

The Complete Works of C. S. Lewis is a monumental collection that encapsulates the literary genius of one of the 20th century's most influential writers. This comprehensive anthology spans a diverse range of genres, including fiction, theology, and literary criticism, showcasing Lewis's mastery in blending imaginative storytelling with profound philosophical insights. From the allegorical narratives of The Chronicles of Narnia to the apologist essays such as Mere Christianity, this volume reflects the richly interwoven themes of faith, morality, and human experience that characterize Lewis's writing. His distinctive literary style, marked by clarity and accessibility, invites readers from various backgrounds to engage with complex theological and ethical questions within a compelling narrative framework. C. S. Lewis, a scholar and a devout Christian, was profoundly influenced by his own transformative journey from atheism to faith. His academic background as a professor of English literature at both Oxford and Cambridge University, coupled with his reflections on World War II and the human condition, deeply informed his literary pursuits. Lewis's ability to articulate the spiritual struggles of humanity resonates throughout his works, making them relevant across generations. This collection is a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of Christian faith, literature, and the human experience. It serves not only as a testament to Lewis's intellectual legacy but also as an invitation for readers to embark on a transformative journey that blends fantasy with profound theological exploration.
