Recently, our family have been entering into the land of Narnia every time when we board the car and hit the road because of our imagination that came alive with the help of the dramatised audio book of the Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe! Our kids are not sick of it even though we listened to the story many times over! in fact, they can now anticipate the lines of the characters in various scenes.

I love this line from Aslan, the Lion:

"though the Witch knew the deep magic, there is a magic deeper still which she did not know. Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But is she could have looked a little further back, into the stillness and the darkness before time dawned, she would have read there a different incantation. She would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor's stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backwards."

It reminds me of Christ who was the willing victim who committed no sin but yet died on the cross on behalf of our sinful stead so that the veil that separates us from God is torn into two and a new and living way is opened for us to come back to God and Death starts working backwards by Christ's resurrection from the dead and giving all who died but yet believed in His sacrificial death to also be raised from the dead during His second coming again!

Meanwhile, we await the release of Prince Caspian, the second of the Chronicles of Narnia. Enjoy exploring the widget below!
