Description

G.K. Chesterton's Orthodoxy explores the essentials of Christian faith and his own journey to belief. He argues that orthodoxy carries us into a land of romance, right action, and revolution. For Chesterton, sanity lies in accepting the mystery and drama of Christian doctrines rather than relying on logic alone. This is not a static state, but one that involves both right thinking and right action. The author believes that political change often stems from a desire to challenge the tyrannies of money and power. In this work, Chesterton examines the seedbeds of revolt in the face of these powers, finding them rooted in Christian teachings such as original sin and the divinity of Christ.
