Episode 19: The life and writing of C.S. Lewis
In this episode, I get you primed on a remarkable, incredibly readable author— C.S. Lewis. While he is best known as the author of the beloved Chronicles of Narnia series, C.S.

One of the intellectual giants of the twentieth century, Lewis wrote more than thirty books in his lifetime with genres ranging from Christian apologetics, fantasy, science fiction, and children’s literature. Lewis’ eternal legacy can never stale: he will continue to delight and inspire future generations with his spiritual guidance, thoughtful essays on a far-ranging subject matter, and entertaining fiction.
