In this book G.K. Chesterton explains how religion-a blend of philosophy and mythology-satisfies both the human intellect and the spirit, and sets man starkly apart from any other living creature.

What matters is that it fits the lock and opens the door....

What they often miss, though, is that the Sabbath is intricately tied to rest and worship-both of which ultimately point to the Lord as our creator and redeemer.
In this addition to the Short Studies in...

We hear about heaven and the supernatural on late-night TV far more often than in church, and many Christians never hear it mentioned seriously from the pulpit. Everyone has something to say about their hopes and fears for the afterlife, but the topic of eternity is usually left to the talk shows.
