The sad faces are a defacement, probably by an atheist. Ironically, a sad face is the opposite of the Christian message, which is one of joy, love and mercy. As quoted in this C.S. Lewis excerpt from the Gospels: "Christ has risen, and so we shall rise."The Incarnation and the Resurrection are understandably hard for some to believe, even in the face of inumerable witnesses and of C.S. Lewis' arguments, because such a forgiving and eternal love seems inconceivable. It is there, however, on offer for all, who are willing to listen and open their hearts. Be not afraid and take heart! We have a good guide in C.S.Lewis, whom I met as a child through the Narnia series. Start there, if you like.
@@CSLewisessays 😁I was not aware this was an issue! Makes me feel better- at least it wasn't a poor soul finding grace impossible. Thanks for letting me know and all your hard work. Wonderful to rediscover passages!
Because it’s perfectly normal, though not technically accurate to think of a certain voice in your imagining of a particular person or character, even if that voice isn’t accurate to the real voice of that person. Though I think you shouldn’t assume this is what C.S Lewis actually sounded like necessarily, I think imagining people as having particular voices or looking a certain way is just one’s reimagining of a person, and it doesn’t modify the more essential qualities of that person, like their character, personality, or accomplishments, but instead is centered around inessential qualities, which so long as they’re acknowledged to be false, I think are mere creative liberties in your imagining of a person. If you however feel morally convicted about getting in the habit of perceiving the real C.S Lewis’s voice as being the same as the narrator for these RUclips videos, then I think you should follow those convictions, just as someone who feels morally convicted about drinking alcohol should never drink it, even though alcohol itself isn’t necessarily bad if it is used in moderation, but some people do not feel as such.
I Really like C. S. Lewis writings and got massively surprised by how he reduces Nietzsche to a strawman and stoicism to nihilism. Overly dedicated religious people (or fanatics) can hold wisdom but fail to look elsewhere or deeper into their own god or gods story. C. S. Lewis has a lot of good teachings to spread but we mustn't forget he also hold these limitations. It was probably a fan of both who felt betrayed enough to copyright strike the video, which is hilarious because that's failing both the teacher and teaching
Nietzsche was raised in Christ, so, as scripture says, raise a child in the way, and he will always return to the path. Not verbatim. As for stoicism, as all besides the teachings of Christ and God, it is nihilism, atheist, etc.
@@killinbildvow80 We can debate it having nihilism, sure. But you're just wrong when you claim its atheistic. It's a school of thought that was started by people who made sacrifices to the gods 2000 years ago. You're not gonna find anything atheistic in the core writings of Stoicism, at best the observation that the gods doesn't exactly hang out here in person anymore.
@@1dustbranch111 The point is that God did hang out here in person. Stoicism is wrong in that point. it's nice to think gods are not personal. Easier too . No demands on our obedience or a choice between right and wrong
Lewis is handling the conclusion of Stoicism. These ancient perspectives emerged and developed - many ran their course, many perished by time or following before they ran their course. Stoicism is one that ended before it’s course could be run. It is atheistic in that it ‘settles’. It has noble aspects in that it is enduring but it is ultimately a path to nowhere. I think as a template for behavior it’s good but little use beyond that and less than misleading when trying to fit it into a weltanschaung or worldview. Nietzsche is a mentally ill man who is only correct in a Jungian sense that he authentically reveals himself and because men are so similar he speaks to something relatable, relatable - not profound. People overthink Nietzsche because there is a shortage of truly authentic non Christian philosophers and philosophers in general in the post medieval world. But you could deduce Nietzsche’s entire worldview from reading Plato and Aristotle and what they thought of Communal Organization.
Alas, they don't make them like Clive Staples Lewis. Wonderful listening to such wisdom. Thank you for sharing.
Forget the vandalism of the fool and rejoice in the wisdom of the C.S.Lewis !
AMEN 🙏
Don’t agree with this channel receiving a copyright strike for the original images seen in this video.
Thank you so much for all of these 🤍
5:35 What a beautiful series of metaphors to describe the great work of Jesus.
Thank you for sharing the great CS Lewis !
14:17 "Those selected for the great honour are also selected for the great suffering, and their suffering heals others."
Listening to this more than once brings out its color and depth.
Superb 🎶🎸
What book can I find all of these in, or are these to be found in a collection somewhere?

Why the sad faces?
Got a copyright strike for the image. Edited and re-uploaded after.

I think I tied his voice in my head to the actual cs lewis and I feel like I did a bad thing
I heard this same voice narrating a different video (not as the voice of C.S. Lewis) and it really messed with my head.
Why would it be bad to equate the voice of the narrator with your conception of C.S Lewis’s voice?
@@computergamescritical6917 why wouldnt it be?
