ProveText 981. The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe (Christ and Classics, 20)
In this episode, Colton Moore and Devin Wilkins discuss the first book in C. S. Lewis’ Narnia Chronicles, The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe. They explore the themes of winter and Christmas in Narnia, the significance of Father Christmas in the story, and the use of mythological imagery to communicate the gospel. They also address concerns about the inclusion of pagan gods in children's stories. The conversation explores the relationship between myth and truth, particularly in the context of Christianity. It delves into the idea that myth can participate in truth and how the incarnation is seen as the culmination of Myth becoming fact (Devin) or the Fact becoming myth (Colton).
Key points: Myth can participate in truth and provide glimpses of God's attributes. From a Greek pagan perspective, the incarnation can be viewed as The Myth becoming fact. From a Christian perspective, the incarnation can be viewed as The Fact becoming myth since creation is God’s STORY.
