Book cover for The Jesus of Suburbia: Have We Tamed the Son of God to Fit Our Lifestyle?
Jesus represents the dangerous alternative to the power of this world: a different power, a different glory, a different peace, and a different salvation.

C.S. Lewis
“I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else.”
C.S. Lewis

C.S. Lewis
“Imagine yourself as a living house. God comes in to rebuild that house. At first, perhaps, you can understand what He is doing. He is getting the drains right and stopping the leaks in the roof and so on; you knew that those jobs needed doing and so you are not surprised. But presently He starts knocking the house about in a way that hurts abominably and does not seem to make any sense. What on earth is He up to? The explanation is that He is building quite a different house from the one you thought of - throwing out a new wing here, putting on an extra floor there, running up towers, making courtyards. You thought you were being made into a decent little cottage: but He is building a palace. He intends to come and live in it Himself.”
C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

Oscar Wilde
“Never love anyone who treats you like you're ordinary.”
Oscar Wilde

C.S. Lewis
“The Christian does not think God will love us because we are good, but that God will make us good because He loves us.”
C.S. Lewis

C.S. Lewis
“I can't imagine a man really enjoying a book and reading it only once.”
C.S. Lewis
