Narnia for a New Generation

narniaAs the third installment, The
Voyage of the Dawn Treader, opens in theaters, Charisma
takes a look at how the Narnia movies have ignited a resurgence of interest in C.S. Lewis’ writings.

At the very end of the world—in a
breathtakingly beautiful place beyond the sea of lilies and an endlessly frozen
wave shimmering in a rainbow of colors—Lucy looks up at Aslan and asks, “Will I
see you in your world?”

“I’m in your world as
well child, but I go by a different name there,” Aslan says. “That’s the whole
reason you came to Narnia. So by knowing me here, you would know me better
there.”

The heart-touching scene from the new Chronicles of Narnia film, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, is an especially meaningful one for
Walden Media President Micheal Flaherty.  

“That’s always been one of my favorite lines all seven of
the books,” Flaherty told Charisma while unveiling a clip of the film
during the Biola Media Conference at CBS Studios in Studio City, Calif.

“It’s something I think that is really packed with emotion
and I know for a lot of people whose testimonies I’ve heard, that line itself
has played a real significant role in their faith walk.”

Keith Green Music and Message Aimed at New Generation

featuring
preaching and music clips from the piano-pumping powerhouse, who helped
supercharge the Jesus movement with his buoyant music and lyrics. Churches
nationwide are expected to participate in the event, which begins at 7:30 p.m.
Eastern.

Preparing for the Return of Messiah

Journeying to the isolated state of Mizoram in northeastern India, Rabbi Jonathan Bernis and his team offer food and medical care to 5,000 Bnei Menashe—a starving community believed to be descended from one of the lost tribes of Israel, the Manasseh. Taken into captivity when Assyria conquered Israel 2,700 years ago, the tribe’s oral histories suggest that a remnant migrated to India, where they continued Jewish traditions.
