Millions of people around the world have enjoyed C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia series. The first of the seven book series, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, is being released as a live action movie in theaters nationwide on Friday, December 9, 2005. Walden Media and Walt Disney Pictures have engaged Weta, the computer animators from the Lord of the Rings trilogy, to help bring this classic to life.

The Mission America Coalition is inviting church leaders around the country to consider the fantastic ministry opportunity presented by the release of this film.

This beloved story from C.S. Lewis promises to be an exciting tale of action, adventure and - most importantly - redemption and forgiveness. Lewis is considered one of the greatest Christian thinkers, authors, and apologists of the 20th Century. His Chronicles of Narnia fantasy adventure series is just the right thing to penetrate today's culture in ways that more overt Christian films may not be able to do. We believe the release of this film is truly a unique opportunity that God has created. By clearly conveying the message of Christ and the cross, it can serve as a powerful evangelistic tool.

In cities and communities across America we are working to convene Church Leaders interested in collaborative outreach for "Narnia Sneak Peek" events. At the Narnia Sneak Peeks, pastors, youth ministers/workers, Children's Ministers, denominational leaders, para-ministry leaders and Christian Educators will come together in your area to "peek" at some important clips of the movie, learn about some of the great outreach/evangelism opportunities and receive a number of free materials.

If you would be interested in serving as a host convener in your city for a 90 minute gathering in October 2005, please complete the Narnia Sneak Peek Convener's Application form. We will contact you directly upon submission of the application. If you have questions before completing the form, please contact our Narnia Outreach team.
