I was so impressed with the movie - it stayed very true to the novel. I definitely enjoyed it. What did you think of it? As we enter the third week of Advent, how does C.S. Lewis celebrate the themes Hope, Peace, Joy and Love through his novel?
I remember the White Witch's final words just before she kills Aslan, "So much for love!" Why is this a story about love, hope, peace or joy?

Good morning!
I am so excited about going to the movie this afternoon! I read The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe for the first time when I was your age so it will be great to see it on the big screen. Before we go, I thought we might do an interesting Lion, Witch / Wardrobe crossword puzzle on line. Good luck!!

What Zack's friends say about him:

"He has a good sense of humour."

In The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe Edmund meets the White Witch and although he knows better than to trust her, he cannot resist the lure of Turkish Delight. "A man is a slave to whatever has mastered him" (2 Peter 2:19). Edmund has the opportunity to turn back but instead he hardens his heart and plunges deeper into sin (Romans 2:5)
Edmund's reaction to the name of Aslan is one of fear and horror. Romans 8:7 says, "The sinful mind is hostile to God." First John 1:5 tells us that "God is light," and as John 3:20 explains, "Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear his deeds will be exposed."
In the battle of good versus evil, everyone is forced to choose sides and take a stand. Jesus told His disciples that they would face great danger because of Him: "You will be betrayed by parents, brother, relatives and friends: One of Jesus' closest disciples became a traitor and betrayed Him to His enemies. Do you know who? (Hint: Read Luke 22:3-6) What connection can you make between the scriptures and TLWW ?
