Time with Jesus Changes Everything: Lessons from the Children of Narnia

What is the actual goal of spiritual disciplines? Is it to check boxes, read our Bibles more, and pray longer prayers? Or is it something—and Someone—entirely different? Welcome back to our "Holy Habits" devotional series. In this video, Pastor Mike offers a crucial reminder: spiritual practices are not an end in themselves. The goal is not to become a "really disciplined Christian." The goal is to become the kind of person who naturally does what Jesus would do—bearing the fruit of love, joy, peace, patience, and self-control. In this devotion, we explore: How the children in C.S. Lewis's Chronicles of Narnia are transformed by their time with Aslan. Edmund's journey from selfishness and resentment to humility and courage—changed not by trying harder, but by meeting grace. Lucy's quiet, steady faith that allows her to be a truth-teller and persevere in goodness, even when others waver. The crucial insight that our growth is not just for our own benefit—it prepares us to be sent back into a broken world to serve at a deeper level. In a world aching for people marked by peace instead of anxiety, and generosity instead of self-protection, the invitation is the same for us as it was for the Pevensie children: time with Jesus changes everything.
