Lesser-Known Lewis

S1E10 "The Seeing Eye"


Listen Later

Exploring C.S. Lewis’s 1963 article “The Seeing Eye” where Lewis challenges those who would use scientific discoveries (specifically, with space travel in mind) to try and disprove aspects of the Christian faith. Lewis explains that you will always find God in creation if you are open to it — "much depends on the seeing eye." It is one of the most personally challenging essays so far, instructing us on how to find God and revealing the ways we may be avoiding him. It also causes us to reflect on how God and creation are related and gives us compelling ways to think about the incarnation of Jesus, and how God, in his love, pursues us always, even when we cannot seem to see him.
