Sunday, February 15th

This coming Sunday, we will be discussing the remaining chapters of Book 3 in Mere Christianity. These chapters deal with hope and faith. There are two really important questions to consider when reading the "faith" chapters especially:

"Faith is the art of holding on to things your reason has once accepted in spite of your changing moods." Would you agree with this definition of faith?

"If you have really handed yourself over to Him, it must follow that you are trying to obey Him. Buty trying in a new way, a less worried way. Not doing things in order to be saved, but because He has begun to save you already. " How does this understanding of salvation conflict with popular ideas of what Christianity means?
