Ted asks about C.S. Lewis’ Father Christmas in Narnia, and reads the scene in which he shows up. Rod talks about how Lewis was such a good communicator, what we see in the Narnia scene and how it points to Christ, and the joy of God’s promises fulfilled in His Son, Who was born in a manger.

“Schweitzer's Psychoanalysis of Jesus Christ: & Other
Essays in Christian Psychotherapy”, by John Warwick
Montgomery
https://www.amazon.com/Schweitzers-Psychoanalysis-Jesus-Christ-Psychotherapy/dp/1956658637
John Warwick Montgomery beautifully highlights how modern psychiatric treatment has lost its mind! Contemporary forms of psychotherapy are, soulless— psychological and spiritual problems require a transcendent solution, as Montgomery nicely documents. No citation of Freud, Jung, or Albert Schweitzer in his flawed diagnosis of Jesus will never be the same as quoting Holy Scripture. Dr. Montgomery’ s latest book is a fresh movement of the Spirit of God to a lost and dying world without Christ. The answer: Put Christianity back into the discussion of what is genuine treatment, and Montgomery’ s newest book wonderfully points us in that direction.
