	Into the Region of Awe: Mysticism in C.S. Lewis (Unabridged) Publisher: Blackstone Audiobooks Author: David C. Downing Audio lenght: 6 hours and 19 min. C.S. Lewis is generally regarded as a commonsense Christian whose theology is understandable and practical. And yet, from his memoir Surprised by Joy to The Chronicles of Narnia, from his nonfiction essays to his letters, C.S. Lewis' works display a distinct sense of the mystical. In this audiobook, David C. Downing explores the breadth of Lewis' writing, introducing us to the context of Christian mysticism in Lewis' day and the writers who most influenced him. Not an uncritical admirer of mysticism, Lewis' critique of mysticism is instructive to us in this day of eclectic religious thought. Exploring Lewis' sense of the mystical can help us safeguard ourselves from false mysticisms even as it opens the way to a full experience of God's very presence with us. In the end you may find yourself drawn, as Lewis put it, "into the region of awe". More details on Into the Region of Awe: Mysticism in C.S.
