The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe

Because the others were still playing hide-and-seek, it took a while for Lucy and Edmund to find them, but when they did, Lucy quickly shouted out how Edmund had come with her into Narnia through the wardrobe. Peter told Edmund to speak up, but Edmund, instead of telling the truth, put on a lofty expression and told Peter that he had just been playing games with Lucy. One look at her brother sent Lucy crying out of the room. Edmund continued to make comments until Peter told him to shut up.

Check out the all new motion picture here!
During the London air strikes, four children: Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy, were sent away to an old Professor’s house deep in the country. The Professor’s name was, of course, Digory Kirke, but the children knew nothing of his adventures as a boy. He lived in a very large house with his housekeeper, Mrs. Macready, and three other servants. Upon their arrival, the oldest two children, Peter and Susan, were very excited to be away from home and were eager to do some exploring. Edmund, however, (being the troubled middle-child) thought it all frightfully awful and hated having the older two take care of him.

While Digory, Polly, and Fledge had been on their journey, Uncle Andrew had had an adventure quite his own, although not nearly as exciting and, for him, much the worse.
It began at the very beginning, when the group had first arrived in Narnia and had begun to listen to the Lion’s song. Uncle Andrew at once found he disliked the song very much, and he could not understand how the others kept from hysterics; for the voice frightened him very much.

“And now,” said Aslan, “Narnia is established. We must next take thought for keeping it safe. I will call some of you to my council. We must talk together. For though the world is not five hours old an evi1 has already entered it.”
Aslan knows how quickly evi1 acts. It does not wait. It is constantly plotting, constantly tempting, constantly enslaving. And although Aslan made his creation perfectly good, the race of Adam has once again brought evil into a land which was originally intended to be without. The only way to combat its potency is to completely detach oneself from it.

A few seconds later, the children both climbed out of the pool in the Wood between the Worlds. They were not alone. The Witch, of course, was present, along with the horse and his Cabby as well as Uncle Andrew - all these had been brought to the wood through contact with one another as Polly touched her yellow ring. The witch, they noticed, was again quite pale.

1.2
As the children surface from the pool into the Wood between the Worlds, they quickly realize they are not alone. Still holding onto Polly’s hair is Jadis, the last Queen of Charn. Because the Witch had held onto Polly’s hair, the ring had also transported her along with them. This is a bit of bad luck for the children who did not know such a thing was possible. Just as soon as they thought they’d lost her, they find her still there.

1.1
The Chronicles of Narnia begin in a time much before the Pevensies; before the start of the war; or even before the Wardrobe was built. It all begins in our own world, an entire generation earlier. In a time long ago, a young named Polly Plummer first meets her new next-door neighbor, Digory Kirke, while peering out from behind a fence. Being about the same age, they quickly become friends, and Polly soon learns that Digory’s mother is very sick. She also inquires of him concerning his uncle, Mr. Ketterley who is supposedly mad. Digory proceeds to tell her of how he is from his uncle’s study and how his aunt never lets his uncle get a word out around him.

That’s Right!
Today, Soldier 4 Christ is officially introducing its first Special Event:
An in depth study and reflection of Christ in Narnia.
Ever since last year’s release of The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe there has been an enormous enthusiasm toward the fictional land of Narnia chronicled in C. S. Lewis’ seven books. And they are ingenious stories. Each one is filled with magic and talking animals, good verses evil, and children who become heroes. But, one might ask, is there more? Is there something hiding in these pages; something real, something true, something of our own world?
