C.S. Lewis built his illuminating story of The Voyage of the Dawn Treader around the Christian journey: from resisting God's grace to discovering the reality of sin to finding relief in the waters of baptism. This voyage, for Christians of all ages, is full of adventures, temptation, discomforting silence, dealing with “Dufflepuds” (distractions), and a final terrifying journey to the “Island of Darkness” (the dark night of the soul). As the Dawn Treader sails beyond where the stars sing, you will discover a world of wonders characterized by light and clarity, and encounter Aslan–Christ–himself.

Editorial Reviews

Review

“Buried within many of C.S. Lewis's children's books are timeless messages about the Christian faith. McColman reveals how Lewis's fascinating adventure can help us more fully understand spiritual insights from not only Jesus himself, but also some of the great saints and mystics. By turns playful, provocative and profound, McColman asks us to 'become like little children' in order to understand some very adult lessons.” –James Martin, SJ, author of The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything



“The Lion, the Mouse and the Dawn Treader is an amazing, inspiring adventure. The Narnia stories are not just for children, but if you want help to assist children (or anyone) to understand their depth, read this book! You can touch the whole journey of the Christian search for God–and likely be spurred toward renewal in your own life---by getting on this Narnia ship.” –Trina Paulus, author of Hope for the Flowers

    5.0 out of 5 stars Deeper into Narnia
    Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2011
    Verified Purchase
    Like so many readers, I have loved the Narnia books for years. Like other students of the spiritual life, I've found wonderful lessons in them, but this book has helped me get to a deeper reading. I guess in the past, I've tended to race through, enjoying the story and thinking, "Uh huh, uh huh, I get it," then moving on. What McColman has done looks like the product of using Narnia for lectio divina, slow and contemplative reading that ruminates prayerfully over the meaning. The result is something much richer than I'd ever arrived at on my own.

    Perhaps the greatest lesson of the Narnia chronicles is pointed out by McColman at the end of this book: "[W]e need to approach the spiritual life as if it were a grand adventure, a quest worthy of embarking on -- a quest that will have its share of danger, but that will ultimately take us to a place filled with refreshing waters, nurturing silence, and dazzling light." This is what I've always loved about Lewis: how he could capture that sense of the adventure of the spiritual journey. Too often, when things get dark and scary, people assume they're on the wrong track when they should be expecting that the quest will be challenging at times. If we had a bit more of Lewis's romantic imagination, we would probably have more of Reepicheep's courage, and end up following him to the "utter east."

    A delightful read. I'm looking forward now to McColman's "Big Book of Mysticism", next on my list.

    I absolutely loved this book. It was recommended to me after I saw the movie. It truly added more to the experience of seeing the movie than I ever could have imagined. It opened my eyes to a plethora of insights that were timely, easy to absorb, and engaging.
    Highly recommended.

    I enjoyed this small book for several reasons. It is small enough to go in my purse so I took it to read before appointments. I love Narnia so I enjoyed re-reading The Voyage of the Dawn Treader and the information on the spiritual lessons taught by this book was good.

    The Lion, the Mouse, and the Dawn Treader: Spiritual Lessons from C.S. Lewis's Narnia by Carl McColman

    My thanks to a friend for recommending this book. It was timely. Spirituality isn't the result of an event, but develops through a lifetime of struggles. Discipleship programs handicap young Christians if they are not introduced to the fact that they are entering a lifelong spiritual journey rather than graduating. This book underscores the maturation process through much tribulation.

    The author, Carl McColman, is an excellent writer. I really don't know how to say that any better. Not only was I not disappointed in this book, I found just about every sentence insightful enough to stop to meditate on what was being said. I have occasionally read a book without finding anything quotable, but seldom have I read a book where I've underlined so much. McColman captures the depth of each chapters meaning and relates it in clear, succinct, and intellectually enjoyable words.

    If you appreciate the writings of C. S. Lewis you will be doubly blessed by McColmans rendering of this story. If you haven't been able to get into the works of Lewis, here is a wonderful primer. If you are trying to understand your own spiritual trek through life, allow McColman to tag along as your guide and life interpreter.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Narnia revisited
    Reviewed in Canada on February 5, 2011
    Verified Purchase
    Carl Mccolman's recent and reflective book on The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, one of C.S. Lewis' books from the Narnia Chronicles series is an engaging and winsome read. For Narnia "fans", Lewis' book is even more refreshingly appreciated after reading McColman's insightful book. McColman introduces his book by a wise observation that today, more than ever we need to recapture some of the wonder and mystery of the world around us by reading what some have too easily dismissed as "suitable only for children" literature.The Narnia Chronicles are for all ages and for all people. Thank you Carl for reminding us of this.
