Description
In this eight-session video group study (DVD/digital video sold separately), you will discover why Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis is one of the most read and beloved Christian books of all time. But seventy years later from when it was first delivered on radio, what relevance does it have to our world today? Host Eric Metaxas and a variety of Christian leaders?including Philip Yancey, Alister McGrath, Devin Brown, Paul McCusker, Douglas Gresham, and others?help us understand the timeless message of C. S. Lewis in fresh ways for a new generation.

This study aims to fulfill the vision of C.S. Lewis of reaching people from all faith backgrounds.
