In this episode, we explore Chapters 5 and 6 of The Great Divorce, where C.S. Lewis confronts the illusions of intellectual pride and the agony of selfish desire. A ghostly theologian clings to the safety of ideas over the risk of transformation, while another soul—bent under the weight of a stolen golden apple—chooses torment over joy. Through vivid scenes and piercing dialogue, Lewis reveals how our deepest obstacles to Heaven aren’t ignorance, but the refusal to let go of what we think we deserve. Join us as we unpack this haunting portrayal of belief without surrender, and desire without trust.Acoustic Background by LolaMoore -- https://freesound.org/s/769686/ -- License: Attribution 4.0 This is a public episode.
