The Christian Teaching (1898)

Exploring the fundamental principles of Christianity, Tolstoy emphasizes love, forgiveness, and nonviolence as essential for a meaningful life. He critiques the institutional church, advocating for a personal and individual practice of faith outside organized religion. Drawing from his own experiences and a deep understanding of Christian history, he presents complex theological ideas in an accessible manner. This thought-provoking work examines Christianity's relevance in contemporary society, making it essential for those interested in Tolstoy's philosophy and social justice.
