Shortest Way Home: C.S. Lewis & Mere Christianity (2013) | Full Movie | Dave Gaylor | Tom Dallis

Doubt and disbelief live in the hearts of many people as they wrestle with the questions of good and evil and the existence of God. Those who embrace Christianity as a way of life must then learn how to live out their faith as a transformed individual in an imperfect and difficult world. But how is this accomplished?The Shortest Way Home: C.S. Lewis & Mere Christianity is an introductory review to Lewis’s classic work on issues of faith and reason. Viewers will find honest discussion and helpful insights for the tough questions asked by believers and skeptics alike, including:• How do we know right from wrong?• If a good God made the world, why has it gone wrong?• Why did God give us free will to choose to do good and evil?• Is Christianity a bargain in which we are rewarded for doing good things and punished for doing bad things?• Is it enough to believe in God without believing in Him personally?• Can you believe Jesus was a good moral teacher but not the Savior of the world?Those who journey to the heart of Lewis’s most famous apologetic work will find that the longest way round—the hard way of discipleship, of learning to truly love God and man—is the shortest, and only way home

Directed by Tom Dallis
Starring Dave Gaylor, Dr. Christopher Mitchell, Dr. Devin Brown

I am watching this as I search all over for anything that can resolve the questions and doubts about God that I can no longer ignore. I wish for a faith deeper than my doubts and I’m searching the world over so I may not stumble.

If you struggle with doubt about Jesus, do this... deep in the recesses of your heart, earnestly and respectfully ask, "God, if You are real, show Yourself to me...".
I did when I was 16, and I had an encounter with Him. My life was changed. He is real. In the Bible, He says "If you seek me, you will find me, if you seek Me with all of your heart."

Jesus is my Lord and Saviour and I love Him with all my heart as I love all who have commented on this channel even though I don’t know you. We were all born in the image of Christ 🙏🙏🙏❤️

thank God for C.S. Lewis; for teaching us the basics about the relationship of God and Men ... so that we can stand firm on our Faith in Him.

This is a good tribute to the man. I’ve read Mere Christianity before but this explanatory piece is a very useful addendum. I’ve struggled with pride all my life and even now as I’m taking baby steps away from it I do stumble. I will persist and through the grace of God I will remove this sin as much as I humanly can. It’s a process I embrace with a deeper, and deepening faith. Praise God.

“The truth of the matter is that you always know the right thing to do. The hard part is doing it.” – Norman Schwarzkopf, Jr

[grannygear]

Getting through the door that Christ’s grace and mercy offer without the burden of the merit that religions bring, is truly the gift of God. Once we trust the Saviour and become a Christian, God will in no wise cast us out. A child of God is forever His and He will never toss us out the door like some men throw a puppy in a bag and throw it in a river. Yes, Amazing Grace how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me. “All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.” John 6:37

Respect for others is the begining

We cannot be perfect. We have Christ's perfection.

[mariannewillars]

such a great short video to begin to understand CS LEWIS thank you to all involved. God bless us all, to be one with him.

[ozarkpipertony]

I needed this today and am thankful for C.S. Lewis and those who invested in this video and pray it blesses many others.

[janetbradbury]

Ive never been able to grasp the ideas in these chapters. Your video helped me to do that. C s Lewis had a mission to reach out to a society that had moved away from the church. He could do this because he had experienced it himself.

[arthurcullen]

I absolutely love this ❤️ Praise the Lord thy GOD 🎼🕊️ JESUS CHRIST My Savior ❤️🙏

[mariecook]

First I want to thank you for producing this film. I have grown from what I have learned, I feel it in my being. I have such a story behind my own discovery of Mr. Lewis that reduced me to tears watching this in the beginning. Good tears...My connection with Mr. Lewis is very deep and divinely appointed and this film was put in my reality for good reason. It is intelligent, honest, offers excellent clarification and I am overjoyed to have found it. tku so much

[Juancoromina]

Thank you for placing these questions before us and before this generation to help us how to clarify Christianity to the next generation.

[dalenemarie]

We wouldn’t need Jesus if we are perfect. 😊

As to the intro, who says it’s above you? It very well is below us too, right under our feet, in the water we drink, the breath we share with the trees roots and leaves. Within us too. Must never negate God in creation. What you do to the least, you do to me. I have come to add, not take away. You’ll find me in the garden, not in the merchandising commodification of creation value system…

[PastorwithoutaPulpit]

The more I study Scripture and the more I attempt to walk in the Way.
The more it bothers me to see a Cross with Christ still hanging on it.
That is past, it is done, it is finished as He Himself said.
We know He now sits at the Right Hand of the Father on His Fathers Throne or is walking between the 7 Lamp Stands in Heaven.
That He is no longer hanging on the Cross.
Hallelujah !!!
Take care and God Bless...

Ive always heard we will never be perfect, but only Christ was the only perfect when human.
