[Electronic download only.] In The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, we see the classic dynamics of an initiation story. The Pevensie children experience separation, transformation, and a rebirth. These dynamics are equally at work in the Christian life. They alert us to the presence and power of the Holy Spirit. This one-session program—suitable for youth who have just seen the major motion picture, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, and those who have read the book—explores the Christian life as an "ongoing initiation." While some students may identify major, dramatic turning points in their Christian lives, all students will come to understand that the Christian life involves "going further up and further in."
