Theology Is Like A Map. Merely Learning And Thinking About The Christian Doctrines, If You Stop There, Is Less Real And Less Exciting Than The Sort Of Thing My Friend Got In The Desert. Doctrines Are Not God: They Are Only A Kind Of Map.

And Secondly, If You Want To Get Any Further You Must Use The Map.

For Narnia And For Aslan!
