This course invites participants whether new or familiar with The Chronicles of Narnia to explore the biblical truths woven into C.S. Lewis’s imaginative stories. Guided by Christin Ditchfield through video lectures and her book A Family Guide to Narnia, learners will discover how Lewis used fiction to “smuggle the Gospel past watchful dragons,” revealing God’s goodness and love through allegory and imagination. As readers journey alongside characters like Lucy and Aslan, they are encouraged to encounter Jesus Christ the true “Lion of Judah” and grow in understanding, faith, and wonder.
