C. S. Lewis is a literary legend whose influence has spanned decades with his powerful and enchanting stories. Lewis’s books continue to tell stories of Jesus’s teachings and sacrifices through symbolism that makes them easier to understand and appreciated by all.
In this episode of Unscrolled, host Matthias Walther talks with Museum of the Bible’s curator of early modern Bibles and religious culture, Wesley Viner, who is the lead curator of our current C. S. Lewis and the Myth That Became Fact exhibit on the Impact of the Bible floor. Join us as Matthias and Wesley talk about Lewis’s journey to faith and why his works still stand the test of time almost 75 years later.
