We want to introduce you to those who forgot everything except Jesus Christ and him crucified. We all struggle with fear of being last, lost, least, littlest, and dead, and so we are here to encourage, challenge, provoke, and maybe even offend you by introducing you to theologians who at one time or another were banned by their church, declared dangerous, or simply vilified for daring to confess that Christ alone is the way, truth, and life. Welcome rebel children, holy mischief makers, and fools for Christ. This podcast is for you.","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/banned-books-1005383"},"episode":{"title":"436: Schuldheisz - Luther and the Lion","slug":"436-schuldheisz-luther-and-the-lion","published_at":"2026-04-17T23:30:02+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/banned-books-1005383/436-schuldheisz-luther-and-the-lion","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/banned-books-1005383","url":"https://www.1517.org/podcast-overview/436-schuldheisz","audio_url":"https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/bannedbooks/BB_436.mp3?dest-id=697691","summary":"The Lutherans, the Lion, and the gifts of Narnia. In this episode, we talk with Pastor Sam Schuldheisz about his forthcoming book, Luther and the Lion: A Narnian Catechism. We discuss how Lewis (and other Inklings) can help us catechize children and adults, how stories lead us deeper into the biblical narratives, and vice versa. How can great myths and stories be employed in Christian apologetics when seen through Christian liturgy and sacraments? Now is the best time to reintroduce great Christian authors, great myths, and great stories, and the best of all stories — the gospel of Jesus Christ — can carry us out of our churches into a world that's wounded and can't find true healing that only Christ can give.","meta_description":"The Lutherans, the Lion, and the gifts of Narnia.
