The classic Weight of Glory by C.S. Lewis, the most important Christian writer of the 20th century, contains nine sermons delivered by Lewis during World War Two.

The nine addresses offer guidance, inspiration, and a compassionate apologetic for the Christian faith during a time of great doubt. The first address, “Weight of Glory” concerns Heaven and man’s inborn longing for a future life. The second, “Transposition,” concerns the similar reaction felt to both pleasure and pain. The third, “Learning in War-Time,” was given at Oxford. “The Inner Ring,” the last address, warns students of King’s College against trying to break into one charmed circle after another, thus destroying the joy of living.

The Weight of Glory sheds new light on many of the ideas expressed in Lewis’s longer books and is provocative and stimulating reading.
