The classic Weight of Glory by C.S. Lewis, the most important Christian writer of the 20th century, contains nine sermons delivered by Lewis during World War Two. The nine addresses in Weight of Glory offer guidance, inspiration, and a compassionate apologetic for the Christian faith during a time of great doubt.

Selected from sermons delivered by C. S. Lewis during World War II, these nine sermons show the beloved author and theologian bringing hope and courage in a time of great doubt. The Weight of Glory, considered by many to be Lewis's finest sermon of all, is an incomparable explication of virtue, goodness, desire, and glory. Also included are Transposition, On Forgiveness, Why I Am Not a Pacifist, and Learning in War-Time, in which Lewis presents his compassionate vision of Christianity in language that is both lucid and compelling.

Lewis, perhaps more than any other 20th century writer, forced those who listened to him and read his works to come to terms with their own philosophical presuppositions. -- The Los Angeles Times
