This course examines the
life and work of C.S. Lewis as a catalyst for deepening and enhancing Christian
ministry in engagement with our culture. The goal is not only a better
knowledge of C.S. Lewis and his influence, but also to use Lewis as a test
case for better declaring and demonstrating the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Readings will cover Lewis’s life story, his apologetic works, his devotional
literature, occasional essays and addresses, as well as his fiction. Topics of
discussion will include evangelism, apologetics, preaching and communication, cultural
engagement, and the use of the imagination.
