C.S. LEWIS:
“THE MOST RELUCTANT CONVERT”
JOIN US TO EXPLORE THE FAITH AND WORKS OF
C.S. LEWIS - as relevant to Christians as ever
During this 4-week mini-course (no homework; no tests!), you will be given a glimpse into several of Lewis’s most important works. We will look into some of the Scriptures Lewis
illuminates for us in these writings and will take time to discuss our own responses and
experiences. Even a brief overview of C. S. Lewis’s life, faith and thought can provide
meaningful opportunities for growth in our Christian journey. The class will meet after
worship in Room D.
