Best Essay I've Ever Read July 28, 1998
1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Can't speak to the rest of the book, but the essay THE WEIGHT OF GLORY is purely edifying, greater than any other 20th century work I know of.

WEIGHT OF GLORY may be the greatest essay ever written. Stunning.
Nine speeches of C.S. Lewis February 18, 1998
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Many of these nine speeches were originally delivered as sermons, including the masterpiece THE WEIGHT OF GLORY. This collection deserves a rating of 10+ and is among the very best of what Lewis ever wrote. Highly recommended.
Several essays stunning the Western Christian perspective February 12, 1997
0 out of 3 found this review helpful
The Weight of Glory gives a probing analysis of the modern Christian perspective on material possessions and how Stoicism has altered the biblical view of wealth and profit. The essay is summed in "Our Lord would find our desires not too strong, but too weak..." and returns to a more Refomational perspective.
