George MacDonald, Part 7

"The Mystical World of George MacDonald"

This film is now available on DVD for free to my YouTube subscribers. I may sell it eventually, but I want my supporters here to have it first and at no cost. All you have to do is send me a message here or through the email at my website and ask for it. Feel free to show it at your church, school, or other special events.

Part 7 - "Lilith"

This is the 7th part from a 51-minute documentary on the life and fantasy works of 19th century Scottish author--George MacDonald. I had abandoned the project in 2007 but eventually went back and finished it. It takes a long time to do everything by myself: writing the script, programming all the lettering effects and other special effects, hunting down photos, and especially composing and recording background music along with the narration.

The entire script is culled from my book: "C.S. Lewis Called Him Master (Exploring the Life & Adult Fantasy Works of George MacDonald)". MacDonald was a very big influence on later writers such as C.S Lewis and G.K. Chesterton. MacDonald is often spoken of as having had a mystical imagination. He excelled in fantasy literature of a spiritual nature, the best of which would probably be "Lilith", "Phantastes", "The Portent", and a children's book called "At the Back of the North Wind".

Is there a reason posts do not show up???

Hi again Kaylin; I see your post fine. Maybe YT was a little slow today or something.

believe it or not i m actually taking a summer class History and Systems of Psychology- we begin with the early philosphers and religious men and move into the 20th century- i am actually here at the library today to write our first paper- describing two different views of the mind and which we hold to and why-

Hey, finally somebody who'll be able to tell me how to pronounce the names of all the people I've read about. Self education has its pitfalls....

I wouldn't know where to begin if I had to write a paper like that.

Another great job Charles.

Thanks; just one more part to go. Hurray! I can finally get my life back!

I like this idea of waiting for God's magic rather than trying to grab it on your own.

I really should read Lilith and Phantases. They sound a lot like the Golden Key, and not so much made for children like The Princess and The Goblin.

it should come to me as no suprise that you would have put this video up for me to watch before i get to work to give me something more to ponder-- thank you- the kind of thank you cannot be descirbed...

but sometimes when

the sun shines I wish I could sleep it away but today

I woke up with some strength counted a couple of

blessings and stepped out in the street

and the sweet

smell of victory put my mind at ease and the breeze

told the tree's to whisper something to me/ and they

told me don't worry I told the devil u was with me.

the bit at about 5:10 - about those expirence of which are few and far between but have been expirenced and cannot be denied- ...
