The Sisters By Grace women’s Bible study group will begin an 8-week study of The Great Divorce by C. S. Lewis on Tuesday, March 19th, at 7 p.m. at Lois Young’s home. This Biblically-based study offers flexible class nights for your personal schedule: Tuesdays or Thursdays. The Great Divorce, a thought-provoking allegorical tale by C.S. Lewis, published in 1945, is based on a theological dream vision of his in which he reflects on the Christian conceptions of heaven, hell, and the choices we make in life. Through a fictional journey, the book delves into the nature of good and evil, the consequences of our actions, and the possibility of redemption. The use of the term “divorce” in the title refers to the separation of heaven and hell, rather than a marital divorce. The main conflict surrounds the surrender of all earthly burdens to be in God’s presence. Some characters choose to remain in the shadows of grey town, clinging to their earthly pain rather than surrendering to God’s eternal love and brightness. The Great Divorce challenges everyone to question their beliefs and consider the consequences of their choices. If you would like to participate with this study, please contact Lois Young at sisterbygrace@att.net. The deadline to register is Monday, March 4th.
