Ruth Jackson hosts this special edition of Premier Unbelievable? with Oxford scholar and C. S Lewis expert Dr. Alister McGrath. Buy Alister McGrath's book on CS Lewis

CS Lewis - Jack to his friends - was a 20th Century British writer and lay theologian who is arguably one of the most influential voices in modern Christianity. On November 22nd 1963, Clive Staples Lewis died in Oxford, England. McGrath’s definitive biography C.S.Lewis A Life - Eccentric Genius Reluctant Prophet published in 2013 gives readers a glimpse of McGrath’s extensive research and a thorough chronological examination of Lewis’ correspondence and archival materials to present a new picture of Lewis’s life. The book paints a portrait of an eccentric thinker who became a compelling, if reluctant, prophet for our times. Writing in the London Telegraph, Philip Womach described author Dr. McGrath as a clear-eyed, and learned companion in exploring Lewis the man, and described his analysis of the Narnia books as 'illuminating'.

Listen to more of Alister McGrath and Ruth Jackson on their weekly in The C.S. Lewis Podcast. 60 years after his death, Ruth Jackson puts a variety of listener’s questions to Dr. McGrath including is there an expiry date on C.S. Lewis’ relevance sixty years after his death?
