All About Jack: A C.S. Lewis Podcast

IN THIS REPEAT: The debut episode of my new short-term podcast series focusing on The Screwtape Letters. Includes links to the next three other shows.

                                          

Welcome to the premier episode of the podcast "200 Seconds in Hell with C.S. Lewis." It focuses on highlighting the classic book The Screwtape Letters. The first show, however, serves more as an introduction to the type of information that will normally be covered. Being a podcast you need to click the link above to hear it. For the moment I'm including it on my All About Jack podcast feed, so you can follow it either on my Podbean page or via my iTunes feeds (see links below).

This series will be short-term. That is, while I'm not sure how many episodes will be done, it won't go on forever.

2017 is the 75th anniversary of when The Screwtape Letters was first published. So, why not read it again!

IN THIS REPEAT: The DVD/Blu-Ray of Tolkien is OUT! Here are some reflections on just the movie release with Diana Glyer and Brenton Dickieson.

In May 2019 a biopic on J.R.R. Tolkien, simply entitled Tolkien was released. While there has been no shortage of opinions on the film, I wanted to add some thoughts on it for those who follow this podcast. Two guests join me to share a hopeful perspective about the movie while acknowledging its shortcomings. They are Dr. Diana Glyer, a respected scholar on Tolkien and Lewis, and Brenton Dickieson who is a Lewis scholar nearing his completion of Ph.D. studies on Lewis.

Here's a repeat of an interview with Dr. Crystal Hurd about her book The Leadership of C.S. Lewis. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What is a leader? Was C.S. Lewis a leader? Dr. Crystal Hurd has thought about this for over a decade and concluded he definitely was because (among other things) of the influence or impact he has had on so many people. After completing her doctoral thesis in 2012 where she examined the topic, she expanded her research and the result is a book new for 2022, The Leadership of C.S. Lewis. In this podcast interview, she provides an overview of (as her subtitle reveals) the ten traits of a leader that encourages change and growth. They include humility, courage, resilience, and creativity.
