So, I have this English essay... and it's like uber huge. And my topic is how the Narnia books referance the Bible and the Christian faith. So I was just wondering:
If you come across, or know any allusions in any of the books, or come across any referances that you could share it would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Try these:
The Chronicles of Narnia and Philosophy: The Lion, the Witch, and the Worldview
Finding God in the Land of Narnia
I looked them up quickly on Amazon and they seem like like something that could help with your paper.

There are plenty of books on this topic. Plenty.
But the main point of your essay should be how Aslan is a Christ figure because when he returned, there was a renewal of life (the end of always winter, but never Christmas), and then he sacrificed himself in the place of the Pevensies and the Stone Table and then he was resurrected (the whole part with the table breaking and all that such and such) and then he came back to lead the Narnians to win the battle against the White Witches Army.
