Of course, heaven is leisure. There remaineth a rest for the people of God.

But I picture it pretty vigorous too, as our best leisure really is. Whether that is best pictured as surf bathing,

or like endlessly exploring a wonderful country, or endlessly reading a glorious story, who knows?

Dante says,

Heaven grew drunken with its universal laughter.

This is Pints with Jack, season nine, episode four.

The Joy of Narnia.

After Hours with Terry Linville, as well as Carrie and Caroline Joseph. Have you been looking everywhere searching for a place where you belong?

Away from the masses among clinking glasses where the hear the hearth fire is on.

Let the laughter welcome you in that eagle and child in there's room at this table

to take a seat and tuck right in for Pints with Jack. Pints with Jack.

Welcome friends to Pints with Jack. It's our fourth episode of the season, and it's an after-hours interview.

And since today's opening quotation was from a letter to Mrs. Johnson from C.S. Lewis about laughter,

Terry Linville. Terry Linville is the elder twin born in Basel, Switzerland. He wandered about the

world with his family as his father was an army chaplain. He taught at Zuz Pacific University,

Wheaton College, Reading University, Duke Divinity School, the College of William and Mary,

and is presently ensconced in the CS-Lewish chair of Communication and Christian Thought

at Virginia Wesleyan University. He is the author of a number of books on cinema, as well as

God Mocks, a history of religious satire from the Hebrew prophets to Stephen Colbert,

and surprised by laughter, revised and updated,

the comic world of C.S. Lewis. And that's what we spoke about the last time that he was on.
