Nathan Jensen examines the writings of beloved Christian author C. S. Lewis through a Latter-day Saint lens, pairing passages from Mere Christianity, The Problem of Pain, The Screwtape Letters, and the Chronicles of Narnia with LDS scripture and quotations from prophets and apostles. Chapter by chapter, the book explores doctrines like eternal progression, agency, pride, the natural man, and godhood, arguing that this humble seeker of truth arrived at many precepts unique to the restored Church.

  • How did a member of the Church of England understand doctrines unique to the restored gospel?
  • Pairs C. S. Lewis's most beloved passages with Book of Mormon and modern-prophet teachings side by side
  • The famous parallel between President Benson's 'Beware of Pride' and Lewis's 'The Great Sin'
  • A perfect bridge book for Latter-day Saint fans of Narnia and Mere Christianity
“C. S. Lewis asked for fish and was given fish. The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy. Perhaps in that sense he was a prophet—a prophet to thousands of other Christians not yet ready to look to the "Mormons" for truth, but certainly willing to look to a world-renowned scholar and lovable author.”

Perfect for a Latter-day Saint who loves C. S. Lewis and enjoys seeing his writings connected to restored-gospel doctrine.
