This will be my fifth time trading through Till We Have Faces. It is my absolute favorite book. I have yet to meet a single person who shares my love for this beautiful novel. I couldn't agree more with the guest speaker that this work is a true masterpiece. I am looking forward to the discussions to come and to hear more from others who have also been touched and changed by this book.

I have been a Christian for many years so I thought to myself "What does that really mean?" In my current studies I started Mere Christianity.

This is a fantastic podcast! I did not know this existed until August of this year, right before semester started, when I searched fervently for a Lewis podcast. I listened to every episode, without skipping any, and today I am all caught up. Jack is my favorite author and even though I have read Mere Christianity, the Great Divorce, and Till we Have Faces already I cannot stop listening to these two gents discuss these erudite works in an approachable way. The wealth of knowledge and depth of study is evident from these two. I am so excited for season 3 and my favorite Lewis book, Till We Have Faces. Keep up the great work, David and Matt. Cheers!

A really great podcast for coming to understand C.S. Lewis and his book “Mere Christianity” chapter-by-chapter...even if I do say so myself!
