I join Cliff Cain in thanking the Harrods for providing the C.S. Lewis Professorship and lecture series. It was an honor to have such a vibrant lecture series on our campus, and the quality and range of speakers Dr. Cain invited to campus was phenomenal. How good to have the lectures bundled together in this volume, which will be treasured by so many.

The famed thinker and writer, C.S. Lewis, addressed issues that were paramount and pressing for religious persons in his time. In this volume, and in honor of Lewis, experts in their fields examine topics and challenges that face Christians living their faith today. Originally delivered as invited public lectures in a decade-long series--The Annual C.S. Lewis Legacy Lectures at Westminster College in Missouri--they include faith and reason, theological imagination, religion and ecology, the life and thought of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, antisemitism, Native American spirituality, science and religion, racism and poverty in the ministry and social action of Martin Luther King, Jr., misconceptions of Islam, religious pluralism, and religion and violence. The authors argue that these issues must be acknowledged and confronted in order for Christianity to remain, or to become relevant, in the current century.

The C.S. Lewis Lectures brought some of the world’s top scholars and religious leaders to Westminster College to discuss the relevance of Lewis’ work to contemporary religion, politics, and culture. This engaging and insightful anthology, which covers the lecture series in its entirety, is an essential resource for anyone interested in Lewis’ life and thought.
