I believe in open access scholarship. Because of this, since 2011 I have made A Pilgrim in Narnia free with nearly 1,000 posts on faith, fiction, and fantasy. Please consider sharing my work so others can enjoy it.
“A Pilgrim in Narnia” is a blog project in reading and talking about the work of C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, the Inklings, L.M. Montgomery, and the worlds they created. As a "Faith, Fantasy, and Fiction" blog, we cover topics like children’s literature, myths and mythology, fantasy, science fiction, speculative fiction, poetry, theology, cultural criticism, art and writing.
This blog includes my thoughts as I read through my favourite writings and reflect on my own life and culture. In this sense, I am a Pilgrim in Narnia--or Middle Earth, or Fairyland, or Avonlea. I am often peeking inside of wardrobes, looking for magic bricks in urban alleys, or rooting through yard sale boxes for old rings. If something here captures your imagination, leave a comment, “like” a post, share with your friends, or sign up to receive Narnian Pilgrim posts in your email box.

A couple of years ago I blogged about the podcast, In the Corner Back by the Woodpile, this one about Phil Keaggy and C.S. Lewis’ influence. It took this long, but I was finally able to sit down with the Spun Counterguy and talk about C.S. Lewis. I can no longer remember what we intended to talk about, but the conversation became one about C.S. Lewis’ Christian thought in fiction, nonfiction, and lectures, and how they inform American faith and social life. Besides Mere Christianity, Narnia, The Abolition of Man, That Hideous Strength, and The Great Divorce, we also talked about fundamentalism, American history, hell, Rob Bell, Christianity Today, and the crisis of American Evangelicalism. It turned out to be a great conversation, and I hope you enjoy!
This was a great interview. I’m saving it for future re-listening
Thanks Kate!
