Letters To Malcolm: One Last Try To Start Something

Why would Lewis suggest he and Malcolm agree on a subject to discuss, then turn right around to say, 'Nothing makes an absent friend so present as a disagreement.'

And how appropriate to the present-day culture of the Church world-wide are Lewis' words regarding worship that extend from the first to the last of this first letter!?

We sometimes think that our struggles are really unique to us, when in reality, their underlying principles and issues are far more eternal in value than we think.

That he mentions prayer as his first thought - one which is 'a good deal on (his) mind' - is significant.

I have suggested three subjects which you will find across the page at the top.

Let's dive in wherever you feel led.

And thank you (!) for your help and company as I read through this book!
