Some of the presenters and attendees share their best moments from the 2024 conference—the largest academic conference on Lewis in history. We hope you can join us for the next Undiscovered C.S. Lewis Conference in September 2026! youtube.com/watch?v=6JeB-v…

Very much looking forward to talking to Inkling Folk Fellowship tomorrow all about the @SterlingCLife C.S. Lewis Center, and our upcoming Dedication. And yes, the great plains *are* great, in case you were wondering!
