C.S. Lewis Blog from HarperCollins
A couple of months ago I featured HarperCollins’s site they manage online at CSLewis.com. One of the areas I mentioned was BLOG section that contains a large variety of articles by either Lewis scholars or enthusiasts.

07r Essay Chat – Myth Became Fact (with Dr. Michael Ward)
“Myth Became Fact” was the seven essay chat I produced back in 2012. Although not directly related to Easter, it does touch on some aspects of it.

2013 Best of Recap
Over the last year I’ve had the privilege of interviewing many individuals. I checked the data of what shows were downloaded the most and the following podcast shares some of them. The program is just over 30 minutes, so I only share some brief moments from them. Check the links below to listen to those entire shows (and learn what I highlight). I also provide a second list of links to shows I didn’t include in the recap (because they were in the last two months) that were among the top downloads for the year.
