George MacDonald

Beloved Christian author C. S. Lewis wrote that George MacDonald "baptized" his imagination. Lewis went on to say that he never wrote a book that was not influenced by MacDonald. Others too were profoundly moved by MacDonald. The discerning reader will find his mark in the works of G. K. Chesterton and J. R. R. Tolkien, among others. Renowned scholar Rolland Hein explores the symbols, motifs, and themes running through MacDonald's stories, and showcases MacDonald’s ability to take his imagination into the pulpit, where he preached many powerful sermons.
