Just a darling Wednesday letter that I wanted to share with you all. CS Lewis wrote this letter about a friend/hostess, and I now pray that these words can someday be applied to me! I also adore his handwriting. It makes me want to practice my letter writing. Enjoy.
Love,
Marie

In this episode of PWC, Marie and Grace dive into one of Chesterton’s best known and studied works, The Everlasting Man. In Orthodoxy, Chesterton tells the personal story of how he came to believe in Christianity. In this much later book, he tells the story of how the world came to faith. He has converted to the Catholic faith by the time of TEM. In the Plan of This Book and Ch 1, Chesterton sets the world scene for the man called Jesus by going all the way back to cavemen.

Grace and Marie will be continuing Ch. 2 of The Everlasting Man.
