The Weight of Glory and Other Addresses by C. S. Lewis is a distinguished collection of theological essays and sermons that reflect the author’s role as one of the most influential Christian thinkers of the twentieth century. The volume gathers nine addresses delivered during the Second World War, in which Lewis offers guidance, moral clarity, and a compassionate apologetic for the Christian faith amid a period of profound uncertainty and spiritual doubt. Combining philosophical insight with accessible prose, the essays explore themes such as human desire, divine glory, moral responsibility, and the nature of eternity. Widely regarded as a classic of modern Christian literature, The Weight of Glory exemplifies Lewis’s ability to engage both the intellect and the imagination in articulating enduring religious truths.
