Symbol or Substance?

Beskrivelse

In this engaging fictional conversation, Peter Kreeft gives credible
voices to C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien, and Billy Graham as they
discuss one of the most contentious questions in the history of
Christianity: Is Jesus symbolically or substantially present in the
Eucharist?

These widely respected modern Christian witnesses
represent three important Western theological traditions. Graham, an
ordained Southern Baptist minister who traversed the world and the
airwaves to spread the good news of salvation, represents evangelical
Protestantism. Lewis, an Oxford professor, a prolific Christian
apologist, and the author of The Chronicles of Narnia, was a member of the Church of England. Also an Oxford don, Tolkien was a friend of Lewis, the author of The Lord of the Rings, and a Roman Catholic.

While
Lewis and Tolkien likely discussed the Eucharist during their long
friendship, the conversation in this book never took place—but it could
have, says Kreeft, who faithfully presents the views of these three
impressive men.
