I may have written about C.S. Lewis in the past, but it has been a while. I would guess it has been over a decade since I last read one of his books. We studied The Screwtape Letters in one of our church small groups. My first introduction to him was around 1995 when I read Mere Christianity for the first time. I fell in love with his ability to describe truth through allegory. Mere Christianity originated as a series of radio shows for the masses, so his words are simple, but the way he assembles them is a work of art. I have since read most of his major books, but somehow I have not yet read his most commercially successful series, The Chronicles of Narnia. That series is appropriate for children, but the timeless message is for adults, too. I am starting with The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe today. Let me know if you want to read along with me.
