Good Stories Podcast by Jody Gabrielson and Stephen Keck
Episode notes
Trace the winding road of The Pilgrim’s Regress—C.S. Lewis’s first major work after his conversion to Christianity. Written in 1933, it’s a challenging book, rich with philosophy, symbols, and reflections on the modern search for meaning and satisfaction in your soul. And a reflection of Lewis' own internal journey.
Strangely, the best part may be the Afterword - where we learn a bit of how Lewis' tone and style warmed and changed over time. And his careful dedication to charitable reading.
A challenging book with wonderful nuggets of thought and wisdom to find all the way through! Let's walk through it together.
