I apologize for the long pause between podcast episodes. This past fall, other priorities took precedence, including launching the Mystagogy podcast for a good friend of mine, Barbara Nicolosi Harrington. (I encourage you to check out this new podcast, which was initiated over the summer and will continue into 2024.)

I promise you that, within the next few weeks, you will find new episodes here at The Weight of Glory; Kale Zelden and I will be finishing up our discussion of The Abolition of Man.

Today, in honor of the Christmas season, I’m reading a short essay by C.S. Lewis titled “Xmas and Christmas: A Lost Chapter from Herodotus,” which appears in the collection God in the Dock.

Show notes:

C.S. Lewis, “Xmas and Christmas: A Lost Chapter from Herodotus,,” God in the Dock (Grand Rapids, MI: William B. Eerdmans Publishing Co., 1970), pp. 301-303.
