Joe Rigney

Great book - basic premise of the book is that our enjoyment of the things of earth - God's gifts - when properly received do not compete with our enjoyment of the greatest treasure, God Himself, but instead enhance and intensify our joy in Him. If you have spent time thinking about Christian Hedonism you don't want to miss reading this.

Courage. Fortitude. Stability. These characteristics, so sadly lacking in our society today, are the subject of this little book. There is nothing particularly profound in what Rigney has written, but much of what he wrote are needed reminders for leaders in all segments of life. His sections expounding upon and applying Paul’s preaching are especially relevant and encouraging. It is a short book and worthy of the time.

This book was better than I expected. The title didn't draw me in at all, I think another title would have been better. The insights Joe Rigney gives on the Chronicles are deep and make me want to re-read all the books! Excellent companion to the series.

This is a good short little book about Narnia and some of the christian ideas and themes found in the series. I do agree with Joe Rigney in saying that there could have been so much more if he had had time. The Chronicles of Narnia are deep and with each successive reading I see and understand more of those depths. I will definitely be reading "Planet Narnia" by Michael Ward as the author has suggested.
