A weekly podcast from Premier Unbelievable? with Professor Alister McGrath exploring C.S. Lewis’ thought, theology and teaching. C.S. Lewis is one of the most influential voices in modern Christianity. The 20th Century British writer and lay theologian has profoundly impacted Christians around the world and brought many atheists and agnostics to faith in Jesus. One person whose faith was greatly encouraged by the writings of C.S. Lewis is Professor Alister McGrath. Both men were raised in Northern Ireland, studied at Oxford University and went on to become professors there. They also both came to faith from atheism slightly later in life. Alister has written numerous books on C.S. Lewis, including a seminal biography C.S. Lewis – A Life. Every Monday, Ruth Jackson and Professor Alister McGrath will reflect on C.S. Lewis’ ideas, life and influence as well as trying to answer questions that impact culture today.Copyright 2021 All rights reserved. Espiritualidad

  • #242 Charlie Reeder: “The Hidden Country” - Longing and Sehnsucht in CS Lewis’ Earliest Poetry

    #242 Charlie Reeder: “The Hidden Country” - Longing and Sehnsucht in CS Lewis’ Earliest Poetry
    Dec 29 2025
    In this episode of The CS Lewis Podcast, Ruth Jackson introduces a special conference paper by Charlie Reeder, recorded at the 2024 Undiscovered CS Lewis Conference at George Fox University. Charlie explores 'Spirits in Bondage', Lewis’ little-known first published work, written while he was still an atheist, and argues that it holds the key to understanding Lewis’s lifelong theme of longing. Tracing the idea of 'Sehnsucht' —a deep, restless desire for a “hidden country”—Charlie shows how Lewis’ early bitterness toward God already contains the seeds of the vision later fulfilled in 'The Pilgrim’s Regress', 'The Weight of Glory', 'Narnia', and beyond. This episode offers a rich literary and theological journey through Lewis’ imagination, revealing how longing ultimately points not just to a place, but to a person.

    #241 Charlie Reeder: Longing for the Hidden Country: CS Lewis, Sehnsucht, and Spirits in Bondage
    Dec 22 2025
    In this episode of The CS Lewis Podcast, Ruth Jackson is joined by Charlie Reeder, a recent Oxford graduate whose award-winning research explores the theme of longing in the work of CS Lewis. Drawing on his dissertation and a paper presented at the 2024 Undiscovered CS Lewis Conference, Charlie unpacks Lewis’s early poetry collection 'Spirits in Bondage' and its surprising connections to Lewis’s later Christian vision. The conversation explores the idea of Sehnsucht that deep, aching desire for something beyond this world and how Lewis wrestled with it long before his conversion. From the Marion E. Wade Center archives to 'The Pilgrim’s Regress' and 'The Weight of Glory', this episode reveals how longing for the “hidden country” runs like a golden thread through Lewis’s life, faith, and imagination.
