Tomorrow (May 16th, 2008), Walden Media and Disney Studios will release Prince Caspian -- the second full-length feature film production in The Chronicles of Narnia series -- in theaters nationwide. With the release of the first film, The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe in 2006, many families who had never heard of C.S. Lewis and The Chronicles of Narnia have been introduced to this wonderful series and the book that started it all. Others have been rediscovering the series together with their children and grandchildren.
In light of that event, on today’s “Calling For Truth” Radio Program our guest will be Christin Ditchfield. Christin has loved the Chronicles of Narnia since she was a child. She has authored more than fifty books, including Crossway’s “A Family Guide to Narnia” and “A Family Guide to The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe”. She is also an accomplished educator and conference speaker, and the host of the syndicated radio program “Take It to Heart”.
During the program today, we will discuss Christin’s latest book, “A Family Guide to Prince Caspian” - A family-friendly companion that brings the spiritual truths and treasures of Prince Caspian to parents, homeschoolers, teachers, and youth workers.
Readers of C. S. Lewis s Chronicles of Narnia realize that there is much more to these beloved books than talking animals, mystical creatures, and magic. Shimmering just below the surface of each story are spiritual treasures just waiting to be discovered.
That’s the purpose of this Family Guide. Besides highlighting biblical parallels found in each chapter of Lewis s novel, this user-friendly companion includes devotional readings, trivia, reflective questions, creative projects that will continue the adventure, and a map of Narnia featuring Prince Caspian’s significant sites. The Family Guide will enrich everyone’s reading of Prince Caspian, offering powerful life lessons and pointing them to the ultimate source of truth, the Bible. (adapted in part from Amazon.com)
