Silence is not always golden.

Out of the Silent Planet -- A Lesson in Morality?
The author C. S. Lewis is arguably one of the more fascinating writers of the 20th century. He has lead an interesting life, starting out as an atheist until 1929 when he accepted the idea of the existence of a Supreme Being and in 1931 when he became a Christian.

Are Martians Christians?
For my entire adult religious life, I've been confronted by well-meaning (I assume) people who want to tell me that I'm not Christian.

The Discarded Image and Wishful Thinking
Certain middle-aged men have a middle-aged smell: tobacco from chain-smoking cigarettes when not smoking a pipe, and stale beer from the two or three pints guzzled down at lunchtime in the company of other middle-aged men, smoking cigarettes and pipes and guzzling beer. They have a middle-aged look... Read full review »
Narnia for Adults?
CS Lewis was a tremendously diverse and engaging writer. Apart from being the most celebrated modern apologist for the Christian Faith, Lewis brought to the table a very sophisticated appreciation and understanding of great literature.

The Old Testament, by C.S. Lewis
Lewis once again uses his superb writing skills to tell a Christian story, give a lesson in morality, whatever you want to call it, by transporting us to a fantastical world. Only, this time, it's not by way of wardrobe, there are no children and no Aslan.
