CS Lewis and his theology on Jesus “What are we to do with Christ? » There is no question of what we can do with Him, it is entirely a question of what He intends to do with us. You must accept or reject the story” (Lewis, 8). CS Lewis was a man who believed in Jesus, the Trinity, and made Him known through his actions and words that changed Christianity and its theology as a whole. At the beginning of his journey, CS Lewis believed that God was a great mystery. Jesus was not in the picture and God was just a foreign name. Like many of us, we can approach God like an unopened gift, hidden in a closet. If we take a look, we will see that it is there. If we don't, we won't know until we hear about it. There are times when you think about checking it but don't. There are also times when you take one look and forget about it. But sometimes you check it and open it and you get excited – really, really excited, but we don't know whether or not we should open it. He fought against atheism as much as against Christianity. He chose to stick with what he wanted to learn more about: atheism. Lewis lacked belief in the existence of God's Jesus or anything else. One day everything changed.

Overall, CS Lewis's beliefs in God were incredibly real, raw, and honest. He inspired others to discover who God was to them and who God is to us. He challenged the people around him. Referencing CS Lewis to the culture now and although he passed away some time ago, his stories live on for believers and non-believers alike. Best known for his series The Chronicles of Narnia, he opened the eyes of many people. His theology and heart collide to continue to show the name and face of God wherever you go. Whether you believe it or not, you know who CS Lewis is. An incredible life lived and an incredible legacy that endures. His belief in God and the Trinity, and his powerful message to the world through the power of his words will continue to test believers and non-believers alike to live lives filled with incredible purpose..
