Historia
Mere Christianity is C.S. Lewis' forceful and accessible doctrine of Christian belief. First heard as informal radio broadcasts and then published as three separate books, The Case for Christianity, Christian Behavior, and Beyond Personality, Mere Christianity brings together what Lewis sees as the fundamental truths of the religion.

So profound!!!!!
Revisado: 11-01-18
I didn’t start reading C.S. Lewis except for Narnia until I was in my late 30’s, and then that was here because it is easier to listen. I’ve been told many times by many people that Mere Christianity is a good to phenomenal book. I have a better understanding of what those people were saying. I believe this is an excellent summary of what is at the core of Christianity. His clarifications specify thoughts you never knew how to put into words. I want to write a study on this book to pull out all the great themes and pictures Lewis draws on to clarify. I loved the book and want every Christian to read it.

Evil displayed
Revisado: 04-28-17
A well told story and wonderful performance. Yet I hate the way it goes awry for the good people in Edgestow. So many people given a bum deal just for the idea of progress. Makes you feel the pain of what it might have felt like to be under Nazi control of a high minded sort. If I weren't so disgusted by the story I would probably love it. It makes you want to beat down any so called grand scheme or idea by any type of progressive movement.

Experience the better
Revisado: 11-13-16
I have experienced this book in many different forms from the pbs movies to the modern movie to a dramatization of the book. The form for which Lewis wrote it is obviously better than all because his mind is not to be compared. I hear and read his thoughts and want to write like he writes and experience like he experienced fantastic worlds, and his child like ways. He was a genius.

Less sexual, I like
Revisado: 08-22-16
I was put off from the storyline of "Bone Shop" and "Blood Engines" by all the sex and foul language, but this one was much less bothersome, and I liked Genevive a lot. Although I wish you would kill so many good characters, it's annoying. I really liked Ted.

Fans of the urban fantasy series from Bantam Spectra that began with Blood Engines will find surprising secrets revealed about Marla's past, and new listeners can get to know the character from the very beginning.

Jessica is one of the best audio voice actors I've heard. Her capability to perform female and even male voices surpasses most everyone else I've heard. The story is not my liking mostly, but nonetheless interesting. Though Jessica just has a way of bringing anything to life. Good job, Jessica!

Extra details

I like the extra details after watching the movie, and they're surprising in what you think is really going on as portrayed by lack of space by audiovisual limitations.

Victoria is one of the best performers I've heard within the Anne series. She has a wonderfully pleasant voice for the reading of Anne of Green Gables. I think she is the best performer I have from all the Anne book I have. I wish she did more performances for the Anne series. I will always love the story as well. I loved it before ever reading the books because of Megan Follows performance in the movie series. The blessings of a little waif of a girl turned beautiful and smart and loving and open always warms my heart. C'est très magnifique livre.🇨🇦🇫🇷

Historia
Postmodernism claims that "modernity", which grew from the Enlightenment to the Industrial Revolution and Marxism, has collapsed. We now live in an endlessly "contemporary" culture, a virtual world of "hyperreality" containing such strange phenomena as post-Holocaust amnesia, Disneyland, cyberspace, and Fukuyama's proclaimed "end of history".

Narración:

Historia
Thomas Aquinas was one of the most influential thinkers in the history of Christianity and in Western Civilization. Yet his theological views can seem complex and presume acquaintance with technical philosophical language. Now Renick has produced an attractive and accessible account of Aquinas's thought and life that will make his views clear to non-specialists.

I think Timothy is very onesidely biased.
Revisado: 06-26-12
If you could sum up Aquinas for Armchair Theologians in three words, what would they be?
opinionated, one-sided, and false
What could Timothy M. Renick have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
He could have not followed the rabbit trail that he liked and stuck to more facts, and not taken the facts to the rabbit trails he wanted.
What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?
There were good facts about what Thomas did, but the conclusions that were brought out from them were off base in their assumptions.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
no
Any additional comments?
read it if you are not looking for real Christian insight.
