I've read Mere Christianity a couple of time. It is fair to say that it introduces some of the major core beliefs of christianity but it does give some secular beliefs. Overall, I would recommend Mere Christianity because C.S. Lewis was a very good author.

"efforting"? Now there's a noun I've never seen verbed before.
All Saiyuki fans should check out Dazzle! Emotionally wrenching action-adventure and quirky humor! (At least read chapter 6 and tell me if you're not hooked.) Volume 10 out now!

It's actually a term I use often and am rather fond of.
