RETROSPECT: April 1st – 10th

Highlights for the first third of April (1st – 10th) include: Final broadcast from his last BBC series; preaching the same sermon for second time and the death of his grandfather.

C.S. Lewis Essays Presented Visually

Back in May (2013) I told about three “visual” presentations of essays by C.S. Lewis created by a person desiring to make Lewis’s work easier to understand. They are videos freely available on YouTube. I felt it a good time to highlight this excellent work again because he recently added two more videos (see below for a list of all of them).
