Christianity for Modern Pagans: Pascal’s Pensees by Peter Kreeft. I did a series of posts on this book:
Chapter 1
Chapter 2: Sinners Need Silence, and Ultimately a Saviour
Chapter 3: Gloom, Despair, and Agony on Me
Chapter 4: Animal or Angel?
Chapter 5: Vanity, Vanity, All Is Vanity
Chapter 6: Every Day in Every Way
Chapter 7: Hobgoblins or Habits
I quit there and never came back to this book, not because it wasn’t good stuff, but because I went on to other things. But I plan to finish the book, and the series of posts on it, this year.
