C.S. Lewis

quotes
There are very few audio recordings of the man himself this embedded audio may be one of  four in existence. Here are three more.
 
I recently discovered a recording of C.S.Lewis on www.archive.org and it is no wonder the man has made such a mark on this world.
The subject of the chat was personality and the impact that Jesus has on the personalities of believers who take Him at his word. Lewis masterfully describes the continuing process of losing self. The terrifying idea that we lose who we are when we are in pursuit of Christ and are in fact designed to do so by our Creator. The realization that it is only terrifying to the mind that is in darkness and as we journey in the light the loss of self is our greatest freedom and joy.
