:
Part spiritual autobiography, part apologetics, Orthodoxy is G.K. Chesterton”s account of his own journey to faith. Chesterton didn’t set out to write a defense of Christian thought, instead he hoped to recount how he personally came to faith. However, in doing so, he penned one of the great classics of Christian writing, a book that has influenced countless people and continues to speak compellingly to our modern day. Chesterton writes about his journey of faith with wit, charm, and a razor-sharp intellect, undermining casual assumptions and lazy speculations in a relentless search for truth and meaning.Orthodoxy is the latest title in the Essential Wisdom Library, a series of books that seeks to bring spiritual wisdom – both modern and ancient – to today’s readers. Featuring a foreword by Jon Sweeney, this new edition of the classic text is a must read for seekers and believers alike.
