My Christian beliefs, after reading the book by C.S. Lewis, are distinctly more complex than what I believed earlier. It is not necessarily that they are different; they have just evolved. In order for Christians to explain Christianity to others, we need to understand Christian foundations ourselves. My parents taught me my Christian beliefs and I first believed those Christian principles on blind faith alone. While blind faith belief was acceptable as a child, there comes a point when one must…
