 I enjoyed this book a lot. I at times found it hard to plow through, as it is highly intellectual. Yet - I was often deeply spiritually encouraged by his observations and reflections. I especially enjoyed the chapters on the 'sunbeam' from his 'reflections in the tool shed,' his thoughts on 'bulverism,' and his insights into the debate on men/women in the priesthood.

 "Simple, articulate, scholarly." Itu kata Billy Graham buat buku "Know What You Believe, Know Why You Believe" karya Paul Little. Tapi menurutku, komentar itu lebih tepat buat God In The Doc karya CS Lewis. Sangat praktis, dinamis, dan masih relevan walopun uda lebih dari 40 tahun berlalu.

 A classic and simply among the best of the best of Lewis serious works on theology and what the intellectual concept of true faith means ....

not unwilling to question the most difficult aspects of most concept of either belief or unbelief...his writings make a case for the nature of God, in a modern academic manner that few have before or since, been able to match...

its also a beautifully rich book full of ideas for why, 'in the market place of monotheism, christianity speaks to the truth of all reality....'

its a must read, for the serious thinking modern person and for anyone, who cares deeply about the subject of God and nature....

 I love this man! Wish I could've sat in one of his classes. This book actually includes lots of different articles and transcripts from speaking engagements of Lewis -- all dealing with issues unbelievers typically have with the concepts of God and Christianity.

 This book is an excellent compilation of essays as well as live speeches that C.S. Lewis gave over the years. It was compiled by one of his friends in the early 70’s a few years after Lewis’ death. It’s a must for anyone who is a fan of Lewis. Additionally, you can see the roots of some of his longer works. If you don’t have the time to read a full-length book like Miracles, you may enjoy reading his essay he wrote that covers the high points of his arguments against a naturalist worldview.
