MERELEWIS (MERE LEWIS)
http://www.cache.net/~john/cslewis/index.html
MERELEWIS is a networking forum for the discussion of the life and works of
C.S. Lewis. Discussion of larger theological or denominational issues apart
from Lewis, has been avoided. This related archive contains "A Life Outline
of C.S. Lewis", sections including the thoughts of others about Lewis,
bibliographies on his fictional works and non-fictional works as well as
related works, image files and sound files, and internet links. The Tidbits
section represents the making of a MERELEWIS FAQ. The archive for the
MERELEWIS subscriber list is also available here through an FTP link... 100
volumes so far. Better than our own recommendation for the work being done
at MERELEWIS is the "well done" that Douglas Greshem, C.S. Lewis' stepson
gave to this site, and which can be seen when you visit.

MORNING STAR TECHNICAL SERVICES
http://www.MorningStar.Org
Comment: "I collected the World Christian Internet Resources, and typed the
text of that famous old We Are World Christians! poster, out of simple
frustration. I saw that the existing Christian information resources on the
Interet were focused primarily on nurturing the North American church. Few
carry any material to help mobilize the church for its assault on the gates
of Hell, particularly when the battle is carried cross-culturally, behind
enemy lines." RAS, MorningStar Tech Services.

We seek to encourage and enable others to help fill that gap. We gather
projects and pointers under our home page, participate in relevant
conferences and network discussion forums, and provide facilities as needed
for other organizations.
