C.S. Lewis: Life Story of the Hope Bringer

Published 2021-05-14
Before he turned ten, his mother died of cancer. So a young C. S. Lewis turned his back on God and became a militant atheist. Even being almost killed in the trenches of the Somme in 1918 didn’t change his mind. Yet from that angry and confused young man, Lewis went on to become someone who stood up and brought hope to his nation in the darkest hours in World War II. What made C. S. Lewis change his mind and go on to become one of the twentieth century’s strongest advocates for Christianity? Now you can find out the true story of C. S. Lewis.

  • I am a retired minister. I was a minister for 30 years. It is with sorrow that I learned from my daughter that she considers herself an atheist. Her name is Sarah and I ask for prayers for Sarah. I have dealt with pain especially the last 4 years as I suffered from Guillain-Barre I am still partially paralyzed from that disease and am confined to a wheelchair now. I deal with the pain that I have by remembering the awful pain that's my Lord and Savior Jesus suffered on my behalf while hanging on the cross of crucifixion.

    God alone brings meaning and clarity to life. He is our inexhaustible source of hope and joy, in the face of all our struggles. Praise Jesus.
  • @irenec2863
    Anyone who read the Chronicals of Naria books as a child should reread them as an adult. It's amazing how much more you get out of them. Thank you, C.S. Lewis, for returning to your faith.
  • @gracewahito
    Atheism gives no hope and that the suffering brought him closer to GOD. I am encouraged.
  • Thank you we need more people Like C.S.LEWIS and Jordan Peterson. Please pray for Mr Peterson that he will accept Jesus Christ Fully.

    I remember falling in love with C.S. Lewis at the age of 25 when my mom bought the collection of his works and introduced me to the Chronicles of Narnia. Brilliant man, for sure ❤
  • @dougmoore5252
    A Catholic man who has always loved C.S. Lewis’s many books and have read the majority of what he wrote. He was influential in my return to the Church and to the Lord Jesus. Like Lewis this was a slow process.
  • Thank you for this lovely synopsis of C S Lewis' life and journey. I have accepted JESUS as my LORD and SAVIOUR in 1989 and the LORD gave me a passion for the Souls of people I will post this to Social Media and my family and friends. May the LORD bless you and this video far and above of what we can ask or pray for in JESUS,' NAME I ask. ❤✝️🙏 Amen

    Thank you for the brief film of the life of C.S. Lewis. I enjoyed your narration, your delivery and tone was edifying and it was evident that the C.S. Lewis story inspired your faith in God.
