Nearer, My God: An Autobiography of Faith
An Autobiography of Faith
By William F. Buckley
ISBN 0-3854-7818-6
|
|
Description: |
This is the memoir of one man's faith. The renowned social and political commentator, William F. Buckley Jr., turns to a highly personal subject - his faith. And he tells us the story of his life as a Catholic Christian. Nearer, My God is the most reflective, poignant, and searching of Bill Buckley's many books. |
Personal though this book is, Buckley has gone to others to examine new perspectives, putting together his distinguished "Forum" and leaning on the great literature of past to illustrate his thinking on contemporary Catholic and Christian issues. Nearer, My God is a book that prompts its readers to recognize their own spiritual problems and to profit from the author's examination of the meaning, for him, of the love of God. |
William Buckley has contributed again, provocatively, intelligently, to the conversations he started forty-three years ago, with his book God and Man at Yale, on the place of faith in people's lives. |

The first book written by C.S. Lewis after his conversion, The Pilgrim's Regress is the record of Lewis's own search for meaning and spiritual satisfaction, a search that eventually led him to Christianity. |

Surprised by Joy: The Shape of My Early...
The Shape of My Early Life
By C. S. Lewis
ISBN 0-1568-7011-8
|
|
Description: |
A remarkably frank and beguiling account of a conversion.
"Anyone approaching this book as a study in psychology of conversion will find the greatest interest in the dual paths - intellectual and intuitive - which converge at last. |
But the casual reader looking merely for an enjoyable book will equally value many other parts . . . "
