This book looks at the education of C. S. Lewis, both as he received it in his formative years and as he dispensed it in his mature years. Lewis forged a strong understanding of the value of education in life. What he proposed and illustrated in his writings and modeled in the classroom is a passion for education in the classical tradition and a commitment to truth in the context of the Christian faith. Lewis s defense of objective truth and the kind of curriculum that would support such truth form the foundation of his thought. Views on the purpose of education, model schools, and the Inner Ring also are explored along with the effectiveness of Lewis s use of analogy and other techniques to shape both the heads and the hearts of his students. The analysis of Lewis s educational philosophy and practice culminates in application of this philosophy and practice to current issues and challenges in modern education and modern Christian education: objective truth, pedagogy, curriculum, interdisciplinary thinking, the purpose of education, head and heart, and much more.

Philosophy

This book works well for topic study on creation and for Old Testament studies on the text of Genesis. Much has been written on the creation from the scientific view, but little has attempted to explain the text of Genesis 1. A failure to read Genesis 1 as narrative history almost always comes as a result of the reader bringing presuppositions on the assured results of science.

In the Beginning, God: Creation from God's Perspective

This is the story of how one of the world's most famous atheists became one of its most famous Christians.
 From Atheism to Christianity: The Story of C. S. Lewis is the spiritual homecoming story of Clive Staples Lewis, a careful and thoughtful scholar who spent fifteen years journeying the long road from atheism to theism and, eventually, to Christianity. Drawing from Lewis's own writings, as well as those he sought out during his quest for spiritual understanding, From Atheism to Christianity highlights the longing, reluctance, searching, and surrender that defined these years of Lewis's life and provides answers to the questions that surround this profound character:
 <ul>
 <li>What attracted Lewis to atheism and eventually Christianity? </li>
 <li>How did he leave atheism behind?</li>
 <li>Why did his journey take fifteen years? </li>
 <li>Who influenced his thought during those years? </li>
 <li>What authors did he read, and whom did he interact with and confide in?</li>
 
</ul>
 Explore the most tumultuous and defining years of C. S. Lewis's life, gathering clues that reveal the meaning of life for contemporary atheists and theists all from the perspective of one who knew both atheism and Christianity from the inside.
 Remember, I had always wanted, above all things, not to be interfered with. I had wanted (mad wish) to call my soul my own. C. S. Lewis
