Your Life in Christ: Selected Sermons
by George MacDonaldThis collection of theological writings by the beloved Victorian author illuminates his views on living in the light of God&’s love. The Victorian author, poet, and theologian George MacDonald inspired some of the greatest minds of the early 20th century, including the writer C.S. Lewis, who said MacDonald&’s books were pivotal in leading him toward Christianity. But while MacDonald&’s fiction remains popular—with such notable classics as Robert Falconer and At the Back of the North Wind—his theological nonfiction is often challenging for modern readers. Now MacDonald scholar and biographer Michael Phillips addresses this difficulty with this expertly edited edition of MacDonald&’s sermons and essays exploring what it means to live a Christian life. Each selection is accompanied by Phillips&’s illuminating commentary, providing readers with an essential road map into the expansive world of George MacDonald&’s theological writings.
