ABOUT SURPRISED BY AGAPE
“Surprised by Agape is the story of Justin Wiggins’ dark night of the soul. The book traces his journey from cultural Christianity through agnosticism to atheism and then to a redeeming faith in Christ. It is a loving testimony to roles that George MacDonald and C. S. Lewis played in Wiggins’ life, and especially the books that led him out of the darkness and into the light.”
—Don King, C. S. Lewis scholar and Professor of Literature at Montreat College in North Carolina
This second edition includes more essays and more insight from Justin into his personal journey.
