HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CLIVE STAPLES LEWIS!
He lived as a man of God that strived to be like how”The Scotch catechism says that man’s chief end is ‘to glorify God and enjoy Him forever’. But we shall then know that these are the same thing. Fully to enjoy is to glorify. In commanding us to glorify Him, God is inviting us to enjoy him.” Through his books, he inspired so many people.
Little fun fact: Apparently, Lewis and Tolkien were friends. Tolkien even was very influential in Lewis’ conversion to Christianity. They inspired each other in terms of their works, but Tolkien didn’t like the way Lewis was so straight forward with books like the Narnia series and was nervous when he wrote books on apologetics. I found another lecture about their friendship. Totally listening to that after finals.. A couple more weeeks..
