I can't wait to see "Prince Caspian". My son and I went to see "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" when it first came out so now we have a date to see this one. I also just purchased the books (for the 2nd time) this weekend. My daughter is reading them now and is blown away.

I personally can't stand all that sci-fi stuff. It makes no sense to my brain. Even the "Lord of the Rings" garbage. When I saw talking trees in part 2 of that series I knew I would never see part 3. Then I got to see "Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe" and it had a talking lion and a goat-man or whatever that thing was....ugh! I WILL NOT be seeing "Prince Caspian."

BTW...I saw Ironman this weekend...skip it!

Ironman is Science Fiction, Narnia is Fantasy. I know, they're often categorized together at the book store, and there are cross-genre books, but they are two different things. Also, a "goat-man" is a faun.

Thanks for clearing that up... :24: The idea of "fauns" and talking trees is simply too much for me to handle. I guess my idea of fantasy is the idea that someone may someday make a superhero movie worth watching.

I remember seeing "The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe" when I was about 6 or 7 and it was the cartoon version of course and it was at school of all places. I didn't realize until many years later when the live action version was due to be made that it had a religious tone to it or that the order in which most people read the books is not the one C.W. Lewis intended because most people start with "The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe" when he really meant for the "Magician's Nephew" to be the first book in the series even though it was released later because at the time he wrote "TL, TW, and TW" he didn't have a plan to write any of the other books. So if anyone is looking to buy the set for themselves or for their kids the newer released sets have the books numbered in the correct order and I'd highly recommend getting it that way as "The Magician's Nephew" will make "The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe" make a lot more sense because it tells how the Wardrobe came to be, why the lamp post came to be in the forest and how The White Witch came to power ect....

In case anyone is interested this is the order in which the books were meant to be read after they were all published

1. The Magician's Nephew

2. The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe

3. The Horse and His Boy

4. Prince Caspian

5. The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

6. The Silver Chair

7. The Last Battle

It's interesting though that Disney appears to be releasing the movie versions chronologically using the original numbering system. I really would liked for them to have released them in the correct order but I realize that they probably did it this way because "The Lion The Witch and The Wardrobe" is the best known of the books and would likely draw more people into the series.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
