Brand New NJAO Post!

NJAO is looking for guest writers! If you have an opinionated subject that you would like write about, please send it to this e-mail. There is no age limit. NJAO is open to anyone who wishes to post! If you wish to submit an article please read the writer’s note at the bottom of this post.

I’ve made a new post on NJAO! Here are a few excerpts from Another Narnia Debate.

From The Arguments

The Magic in Narnia can cause me to stumble, Matthew 18:8.

The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe has magic in it. Magic is bad!

Lewis used so many characters from Greek mythology! Didn’t you know that a faun is a bad creature?

From The Rebuttals

If Narnia is causing you to stumble, please don’t read the books or watch the movie.

Everyone knows about the law of gravity. This law can not be countered, it is a fact of life! The magic in Narnia is like the law of gravity. It’s a law that cannot be countered!

I’ve decided not to read any books with humans in them because most humans are bad!

What Others Have Said About This Article

Those were some good points to bring up. I especially enjoyed the second rebuttal. :-D  The last point was a good one to close on. Isn't it odd that some believers waste their time taking moral stands against something because of petty concerns?  They completely detract from its potential as a godly influence.

WOW!!! I just read all your new posts and hope it's okay to wrap up my thoughts in one comment. Blog Minister, that's very cool Eric! Do you realize how many millions of people you are already ministering to through your blogs? I did a search once and came up with your name, blog, or post on three at one time; that was before I knew who you were. That search and finding out about you is how I even came upon HSB. About Narnia post: I've been reading C. S. Lewis since I was in 4th grade - 36 years ago! I was raised knowing that LWW was about Jesus Christ and the teachings that we at HSB understand. My librarian told me yesterday he is going to England to visit Lewis' home in two weeks. That would just be AWESOME! I love your bookfreak banners, probably the one that has the diagonal Bookfreak across it the best! I think that's all, otherwise, Thanks for burning the midnight oil for all your readers!

I'm glad to see that you got the post up. I will definitely send all the scoffers your way!! I have met some people who stay away from all "magic", including Narnia and LotR. Your post answers a lot of the common objections.

I have finally posted the trivia contest!! :-) Stop by soon!

Regards,
Sylvia
