Description

"One of the top 10 Christian books of the twentieth century." - "Christianity Today".

Gilbert Keith Chesterton (1874-1936) has been called "the ablest and most exuberant proponent of orthodox Christianity of his time." One of the twentieth century's most thoughtful authors, he greatly influenced countless Christian writers including C.S.

Lewis and others. Described as one of 10 "indispensable spiritual classics" of the past 1500 years by "Publishers Weekly", Chesterton's "Orthodoxy" offers a unique explanation of the essentials of the Christian faith, and of his own journey from skepticism to belief. "It is constantly assumed, especially in our Tolstoian tendencies, that when the lion lies down with the lamb the lion becomes lamb-like...That is simply the lamb absorbing the lion instead of the lion eating the lamb.

The real problem is - can the lion lie down with the lamb and still retain his royal ferocity?

That is the problem the Church attempted; that is the miracle she achieved." - From "Orthodoxy".

Every Christian library needs the classics - the timeless books that have spoken powerfully to generations of believers. "Hendrickson Christian Classics" allow readers to build an essential classics library in affordable modern editions.

Each volume is freshly retypeset for reading comfort, while thoughtful new introductions place each in historical and spiritual context.

Attractive, classically bound covers look great together on the shelf.

Best of all, value pricing makes this series easy to own.

Planned to span the spectrum of Christian wisdom through the ages, "Hendrickson Christian Classics" set a new standard for quality and value.
