Revelation 5:5
As an individual or family consider reading through C. S. Lewis’ The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe alongside our Advent-Christmas sermon series. If you’ve got a family or friend with you, why not read aloud? The book may be purchased at any local bookstore.
Audio files, when available, are in the MP3 format to keep their size small. To listen to the audio files, you will need software to play the files. They will work with Windows Media Player, and free versions of QuickTime, Winamp and MusicMatch Jukebox.
