Discover the Inspiration Behind C.S. Lewis: A Journey Through Christian Literature

C.S. Lewis, one of the most celebrated Christian writers, drew much of his inspiration from the places he lived and studied. The C.S. Lewis Reformation Group Tour offers a unique opportunity to explore the cities that shaped his thoughts and writings. This journey takes you through Oxford, Cambridge, and London, each brimming with rich history and connections to Lewis's work. Whether you're a fan of his theological writings or his imaginative fiction, this Christian tour provides a deep dive into the landscapes that influenced his literary genius.

Oxford: The Heart of Lewis's Imagination

The tour begins in Oxford, where C.S. Lewis spent much of his academic life. Oxford's cobbled streets, ancient colleges, and serene gardens offer a glimpse into the world that Lewis knew so well. Walking through the city, you'll visit Magdalen College, where Lewis was a fellow and tutor in English Literature. Here, he found inspiration for many of his works, including The Chronicles of Narnia.

Exploring Oxford, you can imagine Lewis strolling through the same streets, perhaps pausing at The Eagle and Child pub, where he and his fellow writers, known as the Inklings, met regularly. These gatherings were more than just social; they were intellectual exchanges that significantly influenced Lewis's thoughts on Christianity and literature. This connection between place and creativity is a central theme in Christian tours that focus on literary figures.

Cambridge: Where Faith and Reason Converged

Next, the tour takes you to Cambridge, where Lewis held the Chair of Medieval and Renaissance Literature position at Magdalene College. With its rich academic tradition, Cambridge was a place where Lewis got deeper into the relationship between faith and reason. The city's intellectual atmosphere is palpable, and visiting the places where Lewis taught and wrote can give you a sense of how this environment shaped his later works.

In Cambridge, you'll also visit the University Church of St Mary the Great, where Lewis occasionally preached. Standing in the same place where Lewis once stood, reflecting on his sermons and writings, you gain insight into how his surroundings influenced his views on Christianity. This tour aspect highlights the intersection of faith and intellect, a recurring theme in Lewis's works.

London: The Cultural Hub that Shaped His Worldview

The final stop on the C.S. Lewis Reformation Group Christianity Tours is London, a city that significantly shaped Lewis's worldview. London's vibrant cultural scene, its museums, and historical sites offered Lewis a broader perspective on the world. The tour includes visits to locations such as The British Museum, where Lewis spent hours exploring artifacts that would later influence his writings.

In London, you can also visit Westminster Abbey, where Lewis's influence is commemorated in the Poets' Corner. This is a fitting tribute to a man whose writings have left an indelible mark on Christian literature. The city's rich history and cultural significance provide a backdrop to understanding how Lewis's experiences in London contributed to his work.

The Eras Tour | Lover section | Version 5

Versace custom bodysuit and blazer Christian Louboutin custom boots

Like we were (new outfits) in Paris! After about four fortnights off, Taylor brought the Eras Tour back for its European leg in France. And with this new leg comes a handful of setlist changes (sections moved! songs omitted! Tortured Poets added!) and, more importantly, costume changes.

The first of course is a new tequila sunrise-y bodysuit, boots, and blazer ensemble for the opening Lover set. This particular version makes five variants for this portion of the show.

One of my favourite moments in the Eras Tour is how the Lover set seems to fulfill Taylor’s original vision of a summer festival moment (that we likely would have had with the sadly cancelled Lover Fest) and that its colourways seem to mimic that of a sunset.

Okay so I saw Les Mis again last night (Friday night) and let me tell you. Fucking Kyle Adams man. That man understands Grantaire on another level. His Grantaire is book accurate, musical accurate and accurate to himself. His Grantaire is 100% the cynic, the nonbeliever but he’s also a lover. He clearly loves his friends, Gavroche, and Enjolras especially. He and Christian Mark Gibbs (who I haven’t heard much about on here) play phenomenally together. Grantaire loves Enjolras. And Enjolras is clearly fond of (and annoyed by) Grantaire. The panic, sadness and fear portrayed by Kyle Adams from Drink With Me on is both heart wrenching and beautiful. Truly no one loves light like a blind man.

The Eras Tour | Lover section | Version 4

Versace custom bodysuit and blazer Christian Louboutin custom boots

Welcome back to the Eras Tour! After a two-ish month break, Taylor picked up where the US/Mexico dates of the Eras Tour left off at the end of the summer with a rousing first of three shows in Buenos Aires, Argentina - and with it, new costuming!

I've mentioned previously that while I suspect the Eras Tour setlist will remain largely the same on all international legs of this tour, that one is never safe from outfit variations. On past tours, Taylor has introduced new versions all throughout the length of a tour.

This particular bodysuit is Version 4 of her opening costuming - and is quite possibly the best (or at least top two for me). This version feels very, "Hi Barbie!" in the very best way. I love the pink shades here that are a great nod to Lover candy coated sunset colouring while still also feeling rich and dramatic.

There’s also a certain wonderful power and confidence in wearing a vivid pink sparkly blazer Elle Woods and Barbie would be proud of to perform “The Man”.
