Nearly fifty years after his death, the popularity and cultural impact of C.S. Lewis is stronger than ever. His books are published in dozens of languages and inspire every new generation. The Chronicles of Narnia films have generated billions in ticket sales and continuous theatre performances of his works certify to the enduring imaginative power and wonder of Lewis' world. It's also just been announced Lewis will be inducted this coming November into the famed "Poet's Corner" at Westminster Abbey in London.
What aspects of this scholar, writer, and Christian believer continue to make Lewis such a major figure in both the Christian world and the culture at large?
- His vision – of the human past and his prophetic view of the issues in our current age offer us a guide as we navigate through the troubled waters of contemporary culture.
- His voice – eloquently and cheerfully challenges us to develop our own voice to speak into a lost and dying world.
- His vocation – particularly as an intellectual who was unapologetic about his Christian convictions and who was a shining example of authentically-lived faith.
Weekend and Day passes are available to this 50th Anniversary Celebration event.
