C.S. Lewis Societies are nothing new, but they are gaining in popularity. There is no doubt that the recent films based on properties of Tolkien and Lewis have helped to inspire more people to join these groups, or start new groups at colleges and universities across the country and around the world.
One such group meets for lunch-time discussions at the University of Georgia. Last week, the discussed a portion of “The Magician’s Nephew.” According to its bylaws, the University’s C.S. Lewis Society’s primary objective is “to recognize our God-given ability to participate in rational, orderly and coherent thought and to use it to impact the culture for Christ.”
If you’re interested in attending the luncheon at the University of Georgia, here are details on when they meet, and topics for this week and next:
According to the flyers posted on campus buses, both Christians and skeptics are invited to attend the luncheons.
The luncheons are held from 12:30-1:30 every Wednesday afternoon in Tate room 145.
This week’s topic is “Was C.S. Lewis a Fundamentalist?” and next week’s topic is “Moral Relativism and UGA.”
We’d like to compile a good list of C.S. Lewis groups around the country, by state, so if you have one you’d like listed, please contact us with your group name, location, website and perhaps a paragraph about the group, and any contact information you’d like included on the listing!
