Publisher's summary

"Orthodoxy", published in 1908, is a book by author G. K. Chesterton, that has become a classic of Christian apologetics.

In the book's preface Chesterton states the purpose is to "attempt an explanation, not of whether the Christian faith can be believed, but of how he personally has come to believe it." In it, Chesterton presents an original view of Christian religion. He sees it as the answer to natural human needs, the "answer to a riddle" in his own words, and not simply as an arbitrary truth received from somewhere outside the boundaries of human experience.

A Warroor for Christ

Chesterton writes a good book about Christianity otherwise known as orthodoxy and he lays out the ways of the world and why they are wrong. His simple arguments, if you can remember them, will defeat most any opponent and hopefully lead them to Christ.

Pomp

Though I appreciate that CK Chesterton was Well regarded author, this, to me, makes him seem like a blowhard.
