Mere Christianity, one of
the greatest Christian books of the twentieth century, was created as a
series of radio broadcasts in a time of great conflict and adversity.
England had gone to war with Germany. It was a time of strain,
heartbreak, and weariness. The leaders at the BBC knew the nation
needed a moral underpinning to face the crisis and embarked on an
aggressive program to provide it. So they commissioned some of the
greatest Christian minds to step up. C.S. Lewis agreed to help,
resulting in the now-famous Broadcast Talks that became Mere Christianity.
This behind-the-scenes drama integrates the ideas Lewis explored in Mere Christianity with the very real impact of living out a Christian life in a period of trauma: the conflicts pressed hard against the times of grace, compassion, the love of Christ shown to neighbors, and the reasons to trust in God when the world screams otherwise. This Radio Theatre production also touches on the essentials the faith and worldview, not merely as an academic exercise, but as a true life experience.
The package contains 8 CDs which contains the drama and a dynamic reading of Mere Christianity. The digital copy will come out this November, with the CD version following shortly.
You can pre order it now on Focus on the Family's store and Amazon.
