		<description><![CDATA[In my preparation for the next sermon I am preaching on July 17, I am reading C.S. Lewis' The Weight of Glory. The quote below reminds us that our hope is in the glory of God, but we do not know that glory fully at once.

		<description><![CDATA[This is another note I wrote on Facebook back in October 2009, with some minor edits. Quotations are from C.S. Lewis’ sermon, “The Weight of Glory.” “If you ask 20 good men today what they thought were the highest of the virtues, 19 would reply ‘unselfishness’.

God whispers to us in our pleasures, speaks in our conscience, but shouts in our pains: it is His [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is absolutely astounding, from C.S Lewis&#8217;s Case for Christ by Art Lindsley, P. 19. Once when I was invited to his rooms after dinner for a glass of beer, he played a game. He directed, ‘Give me a number from one to forty.’ I said, ‘thirty’. He acknowledged, ‘Right, go to the thirtieth shelf [...]]]></description>
