Selecting The Spiritual Clothing Wardrobe A Study Of C. S. Lewis’, The Lion, Witch, And The Wardrobe
We will study C. S. Lewis’, The Lion, Witch, and Wardrobe emphasizing the way we journey through the wardrobe on the path we choose to follow to heaven (Jesus, “The Lion of Judah”) or hell (Satan, “The Witch of Narnia”). In addition to excerpts from Lewis’ Chronicles of Narnia, we will study selections from Dr. Robert Jeffress’ books, A Place Called Heaven and Hell, Yes! Continuing our journey, we will study William Blake’s poetry, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell, Dante’s Paradiso/Inferno, and C. S. Lewis’ work on hell, The Great Divorce. We will conclude with the application of our study with Dr. Harvey Solganick’s book, Lessons from C. S. Lewis: Becoming an Evangelical Apologetic Disciple for Christ.
