"Can You Love Aslan More Than Jesus?" Kristin Lazo Ep. 2 LFSS Season 8
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Kristin Ditchfield Lazo, author of more than 80 books and Bible studies, takes us deep into The Chronicles of Narnia—the best-selling children's series of the 20th century, with over 120 million copies in print. Drawing on decades of research behind her landmark book A Family Guide to Narnia, Kristin reveals where Lewis embedded the gospel without ever intending to write "Sunday school curriculum." Along the way, she shares the remarkable true story of an eight-year-old boy who feared he loved Aslan more than Jesus—and the letter C.S. Lewis wrote back to comfort him. Were these books secretly theology all along, or did the lion just come bounding in on his own?
