SHINE AS THE SUN: C.S. LEWIS AND THE DOCTRINE OF DEIFICATION

I have not listened to this yet, and plan to read the other part first. But Lewis is no stranger.

I hope that we all get something out of this.

C.S. Lewis And Orthodoxy

Posted February 13, 2009

Everyone in Christendom claims noted Christian author C.S. Lewis as one of their own! Met. Kallistos Ware calls him an "anonymous Orthodox". In this edition of the Illumined Heart, C.S. Lewis scholar Chris Jensen and Kevin Allen examine key beliefs of C.S. Lewis and find that he is far more patristic in ethos and praxis than he is a "mere" Christian! (Click here to read Chris Jensen's article on Lewis.)

Far better than I thought.

Which of Lewis' books did you most take note of in reading the pdf article?

I'm thinking about what is said of "The Weight of Glory."

Thanks for this, Bruce.

Absolutely loved it.
