Dissecting fairytales Dissecting fairytales (January 13, 2006)

CS Lewis scholar to speak at Valley Community Church

Fairytales like J.R. Tolkien's "The Lord of the Rings" and CS Lewis' "The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe" have become popular big screen attractions--but are there kernels of truth in the tales they tell?

At 7 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 22 Leron Heath, pastor of Valley Community Church and a C.S. Lewis scholar, will give his views on "The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe." Heath will explore whether fairytales contain fact as well as fiction.

The discussion, to be held at the church, 4455 Del Valle Parkway, is open to community participation. For more information, call the church office at 846-6622. -Carol Bogart
