Prompt 38: June 2, 2024
The Prompt:
I believe in Christianity as I believe that the Sun has risen: not only because I see it, but by it, but because by it, I see everything else.
C.S. Lewis
Context:
I wanted to take this summer to study some of the works by C.S. Lewis. He is regarded as one of the premier Christian thinkers of the twentieth century, and aside from theology, he helps ground our imagination in the old forms of story. The materialist view of the world doesn’t see the force of things like beauty, music, or affection as any legitimate Cause. Let us take this summer to reimagine the way the world exists through Lewis’ stories.
