Clive Staples Lewis (November 29, 1898 - November 22, 1963), born in Belfast, Ireland, was a British writer, literary scholar, and Anglican lay theologian. He held academic positions in English literature at both Magdalen College, Oxford, and Magdalene College, Cambridge. He is best known as the author of The Chronicles of Narnia and The Screwtape Letters. The following recording is a discussion on prayer, God and Christianity.

For many years an atheist, C. S. Lewis vividly describes the spiritual quest that convinced him of the truth and reality of Christianity, in his famous autobiography. "In the Trinity Term of 1929 I gave in, and admitted that God was God...perhaps the most dejected and reluctant convert in all England." Thus Lewis describes memorably the crisis of his conversion. Surprised by Joy reveals both that crisis and its momentous conclusion that would determine the shape of Lewis' entire life.

C.S. Lewis' famous work on the nature of love divides love into four categories: affection, friendship, eros and charity. The first three are loves which come naturally to the human race. Charity, however, the gift-love of God, is divine in its source and expression, and without the sweetening grace of this supernatural love, the natural loves become distorted and even dangerous.

Criticando os argumentos dos relativistas, a obra – parte da coleção de luxo C.S. Lewis, em capa dura e nova tradução – alerta para os perigos de questionar os valores morais objetivos, comuns a todos, independente de suas diferentes culturas, sem os quais as pessoas correm o risco de perder a humanidade. Com bases sólidas e profundas, Lewis mostra que a tentativa de abolir a moralidade equivale, no fim, a abolir o próprio homem, e convida os leitores a não se render à tendência relativista que permeia a sociedade contemporânea.

One of the most popular books ever to come from the pen of C. S. Lewis was written in the name of Screwtape, a senior devil experienced in the art of luring his 'patients' on earth to their own damnation in service of 'our father below' - and training others to do the same. Screwtape's correspondence with his nephew, an apprentice devil, came into Lewis' hands, he said, by a route he would not disclose, and many a listener has finished the collection longing for more of the insights they gained from its wisdom.

Muchas décadas después de su muerte, el venerado intelectual y profesor C. S. Lewis sigue hablando a los lectores, gracias no solo a sus conocimientos intelectuales sobre el cristianismo, sino también a sus maravillosas obras creativas y sus profundas reflexiones sobre la literatura que influyó en su vida. Amado por sus instructivas novelas, como Las cartas del diablo a su sobrino, El gran divorcio y Las crónicas de Narnia, así como por sus libros filosóficos que exploran la teología y la vida cristiana, Lewis fue escritor y amante de los libros durante toda su vida.

Em Os quatro amores, um de seus livros mais influentes, Lewis contempla a essência desse sentimento e avalia como cada tipo se ajusta aos demais.
