''Mere Christianity'' is a theological book by C. S. Lewis, adapted from a series of BBC radio talks made between 1942 and 1944, while Lewis was at Oxford during World War II. Considered a classic of Christian apologetics, the transcripts of the broadcasts originally appeared in print as three separate pamphlets: ''The Case for Christianity'' (1942), ''Christian Behaviour'' (1943), and ''Beyond Personality'' (1944).〔Douglas R. Gilbert, Clyde S. Kilby, C. S. Lewis, (Eerdmans, 2005), page 143.〕 Lewis was invited to give the talks by Rev. James Welch, the BBC Director of Religious Broadcasting, who had read his 1940 book, ''The Problem of Pain''.〔Justin Philips, ''C. S. Lewis in A Time of War'', HarperCollins 2002, page 61.〕 ==Thesis==
Lewis, an Anglican, intended to describe the Christian common ground. In ''Mere Christianity'', he aims at avoiding controversies to explain fundamental teachings of Christianity, for the sake of those basically educated as well as the intellectuals of his generation, for whom the jargon of formal Christian theology did not retain its original meaning.
