S5E42 – Apologetics Month: “The Argument From Desire” – After Hours with Joe Heschmeyer May 10, 2022

Lewis said that before he was six years old, he was "a votary of the Blue Flower". The Blue Flower symbolized a life-long longing, "an unsatisfied desire which is itself more desirable than any other satisfaction".
