Chestertons Tavern : A Great Writer’s Thoughts On Life And Things Of Wisdom
$15.95
At a time when intellectuals and politicians were all telling the world that science had advanced us beyond Christianity and we needed to face the cold hard truth, an enormously fat man in a cape with a walking stick laughed at them and refuted them with brilliant prose and witty one-liners.
If we sat down with Chesterton in a tavern today, what would he say about the insanity in our world? Very much the same things he said one hundred years ago.
Chesterton’s Tavern imagines what Chesterton would talk about if he were at ease in an English pub (which in fact is something he did enjoy doing). Kevin Belmonte shows that Chesterton’s insights are as true today as they were then. Chesterton was equally comfortable talking about fiction, myths, fairy tales, history, science, politics, and theology, because he saw them all as part of the strange world God had given us.
In Christ, everything holds together, and so we should not be surprised at the strangeness of the world or the strangeness of the Christian faith. So sit back and let Chesterton regale you with his wisdom. You will come away wiser.

Abolition Of Man
$17.99Add to cartIn this graceful work, C. S. Lewis reflects on society and nature and the challenges of how best to educate our children. He eloquently argues that we need as a society to underpin reading and writing with lessons on morality and in the process both educate and re-educate ourselves. In the words of Walter Hooper, “If someone were to come to me and say that, with the exception of the Bible, everyone on earth was going to be required to read one and the same book, and then ask what it should be, I would with no hesitation say The Abolition of Man. It is the most perfectly reasoned defense of Natural Law (Morality) I have ever seen, or believe to exist. If any book is able to save us from future excesses of folly and evil, it is this book.” This beautiful paperback edition is sure to attract new readers to this classic book.
