The ‘C. S. Lewis Option’ for Renewing Ch...

The Theology Pugcast
About this episode

Today we are joined by Annie Crawford, a cultural apologist, a classical educationalist, and home-school mom. Today we discuss the incredible C. S. Lewis, a Pugcast favorite, and the wealth of his contribution to preserving ancient wisdom as it was received and refashioned in accordance with the Christian faith, especially its sacramental vision of reality in Christ. We cover a wide range of topics, including home-school education, classical Christian education, and how Lewis has been and should continue to be a key resource for directing us towards those rich resources in our Christian heritage which help us navigate our way during these confused and disoriented times.
