This book is gutting and yet full of hope. The awful story of Levi Lusko‘s daughter dying just before Christmas is just so heartbreaking. Seeing how her family coped, what they chose to do, is incredible - I don‘t know that I could do it. A very inspiring story for any of us who have experienced the worst news ever. Great on audio ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I've been working my way through this. Besides the "Narnia" series, it's the first C.S. Lewis book I've read.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I feel like every review of Lewis nonfiction for me could be the same: it takes some work, but it's worth it.
You can trust Lewis to build (and build and build) an argument in a way that is logical, philosophical, and tongue-in-cheek and then bring you to a conclusion that has you more sure than ever of Christ and God's goodness.
This book was written 84 years ago, but its message is timeless.

“Not many years ago when I was an atheist, if anyone had asked me, ‘Why do you not believe in God?‘ my reply would have run something like this: ‘Look at the universe we live in.‘”

A Grief Observed | C.S. Lewis

After seeing the movie Freuds Last Session I wanted to know more about CS Lewis. I had read his Narnia series in my 20s. This was in my partners extensive book collection and I started to read it. My confession here, I only read the Afterword. Amazing. Gave me all I wanted to know about CS Lewis. Fitted in well with what I had learnt from the movie. I am interested in how he went from being an atheist to a Christian. I‘ll try 1 more of his books.

This isn't the first line but the first line of chap 4. It just resonated with me right now. ?
