While many evangelicals are praising Disney's The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe as an overtly Christian movie, one Christian author claims the film twists more biblical truth than it alludes to. The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe opened last week after months of hype and publicity from the film's producers and speculation by entertainment gurus and the general public. One of the primary concerns, at least among evangelical Christians, was: Will it remain true to author C.S. Lewis's desire to illustrate the sacrificial love and victorious resurrection of Christ in a fantasy world called "Narnia"?

From next year's festival to the parade to the town's decor, town officials are planning to make a bold statement about their own views on the subject.
