About this listen

 A weekly podcast from Premier Unbelievable? with Professor Alister McGrath exploring C.S. Lewis’ thought, theology and teaching. C.S. Lewis is one of the most influential voices in modern Christianity. The 20th Century British writer and lay theologian has profoundly impacted Christians around the world and brought many atheists and agnostics to faith in Jesus. One person whose faith was greatly encouraged by the writings of C.S. Lewis is Professor Alister McGrath. Both men were raised in Northern Ireland, studied at Oxford University and went on to become professors there. They also both came to faith from atheism slightly later in life. Alister has written numerous books on C.S. Lewis, including a seminal biography C.S. Lewis – A Life. Every Monday, Ruth Jackson and Professor Alister McGrath will reflect on C.S. Lewis’ ideas, life and influence as well as trying to answer questions that impact culture today.Copyright 2021 All rights reserved. Spirituality

    #248 Ruth Jackson: Why CS Lewis Might Be Exactly What a Post-Truth World Needs
    Feb 9 2026
    In this special edition of the CS Lewis Podcast, we’re sharing a conversation first recorded for the Lesser Known Lewis podcast, kindly made available for our listeners. Ruth Jackson joins hosts Jordan Duncan and Sean Stevenson Douglas to explore one of Lewis’s lesser-known apologetic essays, written in 1945, and ask how it speaks to today’s cultural moment. Together they reflect on truth, authenticity, beauty, and imagination in Christian apologetics, especially in a post-Christian, post-modern age. The discussion ranges from Lewis’s defence of objective truth to the power of beauty, story, and lived faith, with rich reflections on Narnia, miracles, politics, and the modern search for meaning. A thoughtful, wide-ranging conversation that shows just how timeless, and timely, Lewis remains.
