Therefore, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us also lay aside every weight, and sin which clings so closely, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us.
I was recently in Oxford, England and went to the Eagle and Child pub. C.S. Lewis is part of the "great cloud of witnesses" for me in my walk of faith and run of endurance. He has had a huge impact on my faith and my Christianity. It was a blessing to go sit in a place where this man spent time and be reminded that this man really lived and breathed and had faith in the same God that I do. My faith has been strengthened by seeing this place. It is something tangible to look back on, when it seems like so much of our faith is based on things we do not see.
