These seven beloved stories by C. S. Lewis bring warm thoughts to those of us who read them as children or adults. Many of us have been greatly affected by the view Aslan has given us of Christ. Great scriptural truths worm their way into our lives through the power of these creative stories. In light of that, we've created a Bible Study Course which covers all of these books separately, so when you receive the course, you can study one particular book or all of them in a series. You'll enjoy thinking through the spiritual principles these books bring to the forefront, and how they apply to your life.

How does God's sovereignty use all things for the good of his people and the glory of his name? What are the effects of sin on creation? How do we deal with temptation? Why does God allow pain and suffering?

How do lust and self-deception lead to sin? What are the ultimate results of sin? Why was Jesus willing to die in our place? How did his death bring us intimacy with God? How does the resurrection of Christ show us God's power over death?

How do we train our children for the battles they will face? How do we respond to the call of God on our lives? Are we willing to follow Christ no matter what the cost? Why should we have hopeful expectation as we wait for God to answer us? How can we have joy in the midst of any battle?
