Last week I got to fulfill a big dream of mine by attending a week-long summer seminar at The Kilns, the home of C. S. Lewis just outside of Oxford in the UK. There were 14 students, and we were together from breakfast till late every night, learning about Jack, his life, his family, his books, his ministries, his war years, his impact on the Christian world…
Our two teachers were excellent, and the discussions were fascinating (whether at the Kilns, or on walks around Oxford and Cambridge where Jack taught, or on paths by the river, or in pubs for great food or the gardens outside having tea, or after worshipping in Jack’s church, or visiting his grave–as well as Tolkien’s and Churchill’s…)
