Podcast Talks #1: John Newton's First Letter to "Mr. B"

During World War II, C.S. Lewis gave a series of talks on BBC radio. The first publication of part of these talks was titled Broadcast Talks. They later became part of Mere Christianity. As a hat tip to Lewis, this series begins during the COVID-19 outbreak. The idea is not to recreate what Lewis did, but to turn our gaze to the permanent when the fleeting would dominate our minds.

In each episode some portion of a great work of one of the saints of old will be read and commented on.
