We return now to the whole map — looking back at the journey Chesterton took, and at the journey we have taken alongside him, to ask what has changed, what has taken root, and what we will do with what we have found.

Discussion Questions

8 questions

1.Which chapter or idea in Orthodoxy had the most impact on you, and why? Try to be specific: what exactly did Chesterton say, and what did it do to your thinking or your feeling?

2.Chesterton's central method is to take something familiar (fairy tales, insane asylums, patriotism) and use it to illuminate something theological. What is the most effective of his analogies or illustrations for you? What made it work?

3.Before reading this book, how did you think of orthodoxy — traditional Christian belief and its creeds? Has that changed? In what direction?
