Exploring C. S. Lewis' 1947 Preface to the George MacDonald anthology he edited. Here Lewis praises both the man, the ability, and the spiritual depth of scottish author, pastor, and theologian George MacDonald, saying MacDonald is the greatest genius he knew when it came to making myths. We learn more of what a myth is, and how it might be possible to write a better version of Narnia or Lord of the Rings, than even Tolkien and Lewis could. Lewis' essay "A Note on Jane Austen" makes an appearance as well.

C. S. Lewis once wrote a preface to a translation of the Bible, "Modern Translations of the Bible" (1947). Here Lewis explains a tenant of reformation theology about scripture, that there ought to be translations in the vernacular of the day so that all may "read, mark, learn and inwardly digest" what the Holy Spirit has inspired in scripture. This essay explores theology around Bible translation, inspiration, and interpretation.
We also dip into what Lewis wrote elsewhere about good translation and interpretation in the essays:
"A Lectionary of Christian Prose from the Second Century to the Twentieth Century",
"Odysseus sails again: The Odyssey", and
"The Literary Impact of the Authorized Version"
These can be found in "Image and Imagination," and "Selected Literary Essays"

We explore Lewis' 1948 article "Priestesses in the Church?", where C. S. Lewis explains why he thinks women should not be ordained as Priests. We found his answer quite surprising as it has less to do with what a woman is, or can do, and more to do with what a Priest is, and is meant to do. In a worldwide debate that is ongoing and often very volatile, we find Lewis' contribution to the discussion unique and thought-provoking.
We also touch on a part of Lewis' preface to his friend Austin Farrer's A Faith of Our Own (found in Image and Imagination, by C.S. Lewis).

Exploring a 1949 article C. S. Lewis wrote, "On Church Music," in which he tackles the ongoing argument about musical style and quality in church and concludes that the best worship is when we dislike the style but sing anyway because our fellow brothers and sisters seem to be edified by it, for true worship is sacrifice. We include pieces from "Correspondence with an Anglican who Dislikes Hymns" (1946) and Lewis' review of The Oxford Book of Christian Verse (1940, published in Image and Imagination).

In this essay we explore three short pieces by C. S. Lewis which capture Lewis's heart to find, believe, live, and preach 'Mere Christianity'. The essay "Christian Reunion" is actually a piece he penned on the back of notes for his 1944 Mere Christianity broadcasts. We begin with an editorial letter, "The Holy Name" which Lewis wrote to a magazine in 1951, and another editorial back and forth Lewis was writing in 1949, published now as "The Church's Liturgy, Invocation, and Invocation of the Saints."

Exploring Lewis's 1951 article on Christian Hope and it's meaning for today, where he asks the sobering questions, what if tonight was "The World's Last Night"? This essay on Christ's second coming provides us with some potent advent reflection, providing clear challenge to how we live, but also clear hope for those of us who are in Christ.

Exploring C. S. Lewis' 1944 Preface to St. Athanasius' On the Incarnation, "On the Reading of Old Books." Here, Lewis explains why it's not only good advice for people to be well-read, but specifically to be well-read in old books as well as new ones. Lewis then extends the argument to Christians especially, pleading with them to not only become familiar with, but to become immersed in orthodox Christian teaching through the reading of old books.

Exploring C. S. Lewis' "What Are We to Make for Jesus Christ?" - a chapter he wrote in 1950 in a book for young people (Asking Them Questions). Here Lewis expands his famous argument from Mere Christianity, evaluating the historical Jesus and arguing that he could not have been either a Liar or a Lunatic, and, therefore, must be who he said he was: Lord. In this chapter, Lewis explores whether Jesus could have simply been a legend that grew among his followers. His answer, again, is "No, therefore, Jesus must be Lord."

We're thrilled to have Dr. Christin Ditchfield-Lazo join us as we reflect back on what we've learned from Lewis about communicating the Gospel in a disenchanted age. As always with our finale's we look at the intersection of our theme from the season with Scripture, asking questions like – how can we be like Lewis in sharing Scripture with the disenchanted world around us? Lewis did this so well, especially through Narnia.
As it turns out, Christin has written a wonderful book, A Family Guide to Narnia: Biblical Truths in C. S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia, which walks the reader through how Lewis is communicating Scripture to our disenchanted world through every chapter of Narnia.

Look... I didn't think anyone would ACTUALLY take me up on talking about "Religion & Rocketry" again. But here we are.
This time, I was invited on my good friend Amos Martel's apologetics podcast, Missionary District, to discuss the threat (if any) of Non-Human Intelligence to the Christian faith. While, of course, I use C. S. Lewis' masterful essay "Religion & Rocketry" (which, yes, I have memorized now), we also get into alot of new territory and I explain my most outlandish conspiracy theory yet... Octo-aliens.

Exploring C. S. Lewis' 1945 essay "Talking About Bicycles" with Daniel Payne from the Lamp-Post Listener podcast. As he talks about bicycles, Lewis points out that there seem to be 4 stages to being enchanted by something wonderful. First, before we've been enchanted and know nothing of it - this, he calls "unenchantment." Second, when we first become enchanted by something wonderful - "enchantment". Third, when we become disillusioned by the thing. This is "disenchantment." Fourth, when we, fully accepting of the things limitations, become "re-enchanted" by how wonderful it really is. We discuss how this impacts how we can share the Gospel in a disenchanted age, as well as, how it helps us reflect on the Gospel during the Advent season.
The music this episode is "Deliverer / O Come O Come Emmanuel" by Camille Parkman, and can be found on Spotify and other music platforms for purchase or streaming.

Notas do episódio
In C. S. Lewis' 1951 speech, "Is Theism Important?" he helps Christians see the task of "winning souls to Christ" in two steps of faith. The first step of faith is belief that there is a God. The second step is the trust in that God, Jesus Christ. A trust that Lewis says is like "confidence in a friend." This is the utmost step, the one to which all our evangelism, apologetics, indeed, all our witnessing must lead towards. However, that is not to undermine the importance of the first step, convincing people there is a God, there is something Supernatural, something Transcendent. This is becoming increasingly difficult in our Disenchanted Age. Difficult, but not impossible, and Lewis helps us figure out how to do just that.

Exploring C. S. Lewis' 1961 article "Before We Can Communicate" where Lewis, the brilliant communicator, shares his thoughts on how he communicates so well. We find this advice applicable to anyone and everyone who wants to be able to communicate what they love with the people they love - or with strangers. But it is especially helpful for those who Lewis had in mind: people who want to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with the world around them.
We end the episode by covering the brief excerpt published as "Pittenger-Lewis and Version Vernacular" which reiterates that famous advice that Lewis gives about the importance of communicating in "Vulgar English."

Exploring Lewis' 1945 article "Modern Man and His Categories of Thought" where Lewis explores 6 reasons he believes to be why Modern people no longer believe in the supernatural, sin, or divine judgement. We find ourselves agreeing (with at least 5) and think those reasons have continued producing increasingly negative effects in our own day. The essay helps us understand why people in our own day are hard to reach with the Gospel.

Exploring Lewis' 1958 article "Revival or Decay?" where he imagines a conversation with a headmaster who is celebrating how Religion seems to be having a bit of a revival. Lewis is not so sure whether to interpret things the same way. The signs of religious revival in culture that the headmaster sees might not be an entirely positive thing. We find these same supposed signs of revival in religion present in the early 2020's and think Lewis' invitation to remember what is more important is very relevant.

In C. S Lewis' "On the Transmission of Christianity" from 1946, he explains why he thinks Christianity appears on the decline in future generations. Spoiler alert: It's not because humans are outgrowing religion or becoming too enlightened to believe in such silly things. It's because the next generation is no longer being taught a compelling view of the faith in their education. We are joined by Daniel from The Lamp-Post Listener, himself a teacher in a classical Christian school, to discuss Lewis robust and challenging solution to the problem.
