I have given one version or another of this lecture since sometime in the mid 1990’s.  I have polished it quite a bit, and I have learned a lot since those early days.  Here I give a version of one of my lectures focusing on verbal interviews.  Criminals will use a variety of means to select victims, these can generally be classified as physical interviews- based more on body language- or verbal interviews, based on interactions that can be more subtle.  Either way can be very subtle or very direct, here we discuss some of these with a focus on the verbal interview.

The Chronicles of Narnia are one the best loved children’s story collections of all time.  However, most of the people who are aware of the series, have not read all seven books.  Today we are going to have a (mostly!) spoiler-free quick discussion about this remarkable series, the order in which C.S, Lewis wished them to be read- which is quite different than the order they were originally published in- some thoughts on their relevance to Christianity, and finish with some thoughts about reading these to children.
