Although it has been almost seventy years since Time declared C.S. Lewis one of the world's most influential spokespersons for Christianity and fifty years since Lewis's death, his influence remains just as great if not greater today. While much has been written on Lewis and his work, virtually nothing has been written from a philosophical perspective on his views of happiness, pleasure, pain, and the soul and body. As a result, no one so far has recognized that his views on these matters are deeply interesting and controversial, and-perhaps more jarring-no one has yet adequately explained why Lewis never became a Roman Catholic. Stewart Goetz's careful investigation of Lewis's philosophical thought reveals oft-overlooked implications and demonstrates that it was, at its root, at odds with that of Thomas Aquinas and, thereby, the Roman Catholic Church.

For decades, I foolishly believed that the more I laughed, the more pleasure I felt, and even the more I got, the happier I'd be. But the truth? I was miserable! In my early thirties, I finally humbled myself enough to open my eyes to the truths around me, and once I did, I started to understand that without the power to be truly happy, I just couldn't be. Thus, I began to focus my efforts on becoming more powerful, but it didn't take me long to realize that merely acquiring more power of any sort wasn't good enough, as I needed to acquire the power to be responsible with my powers. Far too many people believe that happiness can be acquired through little more than positive thinking, reading uplifting quotes, and the like, but our happiness is the result of the choices we make. Yes, there's a place for feel-good quotes in our lives, but without a solid understanding of the science behind the scenes, we'll only experience happiness occasionally as we stumble across the path from time to time. The problem? Sometimes happy and even mostly happy aren't nearly good enough to be truly happy. Life was never meant to be lived alone, and just like hiking a trail with family and friends, walking the path of true happiness will be far more enjoyable when shared with those we love. Please join me in learning how to live faithfully.

Arizona. Kentucky. Indiana. It’s astounding to think that three elite college basketball programs can trace their success back to one small-town high school coach, Blackhawk High’s legendary John Miller. Coach John Miller was just following his heart’s passion and channeling his unbreakable spirit when in the early 1970s he began to use basketball as a platform for developing young players and future leaders. Little could he have known that his two sons, Sean and Archie Miller, and their cousin, John Calipari, would grow up to lead historic basketball programs to national prominence. And over his career, he also inspired countless other young players, who would grow up to become doctors, lawyers, and prominent CEOs. At his retirement in 2005, Coach Miller’s record stood at 657–280 over his thirty-five-year career, making him one of the winningest coaches in high school basketball history. Today, Coach Miller’s legacy extends from the tiny hamlet of Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, to some of the most famous sporting venues in America. He is a legend in the sport, praised by greats such as Kobe Bryant, Thad Matta, Bucky Waters, and Jamie Dixon. Filled with original photos and behind-the-scenes stories, Miller Time is for every hardwood aficionado.
