Sanctification, free will, faith, truth: As Christians, many of us have wrestled with and tried to understand these complicated concepts. Countless theologians and authors have dealt with these ideas and attempted their explanations. C.S. Lewis is one such great theologian and author to do this. Through reasoning and storytelling, Lewis introduced complex theological concepts in ways that all of us, even children, can begin to explore and understand. By examining what Lewis has to say about pain, suffering, and grief, we will gain a deeper understanding of concepts and terms like sanctification, heaven and hell, apologetics, and reason and what they have to do with the human condition.
