C.S. Lewis Southwest Regional Retreat – We’ve just launched the official website and added the schedule information.\"\"<\/h3>\n

From the early 1930s to the late 1940s, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, and a community of their friends and fellow writers met frequently to share good fellowship and their creative works-in-progress.\u00a0 Members of this small writers group, the \u201cInklings,\u201d came to produce some of the most beloved works of fiction and prose of the twentieth century.<\/p>\n

But how did the Inklings, many of them Christians working in skeptical secular environments, come to create such lasting contributions to literature and Christianity?\u00a0 And what can we learn about Christian creativity, community, and fellowship from such a diverse group of writers and thinkers?<\/p>\n

Join Diana Pavlac Glyer<\/strong>, author of The Company They Keep: C.S. Lewis & J.R.R. Tolkien as Writers in Community,<\/em> as she invites us to discover their friendship and the influence it had on their lives, their works, and their relationships with God.<\/p>\n

In the intimate woodland setting of the Camp Allen Conference Center, be refreshed by Ad Deum Dance Company<\/strong> and the music of Kemper Crabb<\/strong>. Explore the theme in breakout sessions with Joel Heck<\/strong>, George Musacchio<\/strong>, Andrew Lazo<\/strong> and Don Wood<\/strong>. Worship with Rev. Skip Ryan<\/strong> and Rev. Scott Irwin<\/strong>. And engage in stimulating discussion and fellowship with other conferees.<\/p>\n

The C.S. Lewis Southwest Regional Retreat<\/strong> will renew your spirit, challenge your mind, and refresh your body!<\/p>\n
