I absolutely love your music--it enchants me, especially live. I was wondering, though, how much of your lyrics are inspired by C.S. Lewis, because I see hints of snapshots that remind me of The Great Divorce, The Space Trilogy, etc. Keep writing wonderful songs and may God bless your work!! |

Mere Christianity is a great book. I agree. I haven't haven't yet finished the space trilogy, but I like the first two books. _________________ are you a member of the slaves to their members? |

The best thing CS Lewis ever wrote in the little essay/Sermon titled "the Weight of Glory" its only about 10 pages, but it is absolutely amazing. And this is not just my opinion either, many of the biggest lewis fans agree. Check it out. |

Just thought I'd say this string is a yes. _________________ The day it single with half is done. Today I questioned all never. I have two way to choose: To be forever to crush and miss of with relief compensating single close to the failure memory, or cynicism. No the exit. I do not want either or one.

My favorite Lewis book would have to be Til We Have Faces. that my friends was brilliant. i mean most of his stuff is brilliant, but that was super brilliant. i read most of the space trilogy but i never could finish the third book. i could never find the proper attitude to enjoy it. i loved the first two though. |
