If your summer vacation plans take you to England, be sure to put a walking tour of Cambridge on your itinerary. And make sure that your tour is guided by the engaging, knowledgeable and dedicated scholars of Christian Heritage Cambridge. Claire and I can personally testify that it is an illuminating experience not to be missed.After all, you'll learn why Cambridge has for centuries been such an outstanding and important university. And how it is linked to the Reformation, the founding of the United States of America, the abolition of the Slave Trade, the development of modern science, and to such giants on the world's stage as Isaac Newton, Francis Bacon, Oliver Cromwell, William Wilberforce, C.S. Lewis and so many more.
And if, by chance, you're not going to make it over to the UK real soon, I'd advise you to do the next best thing to that walking tour of Cambridge. And that's to brew up, lay out some scones or biscuits on a tray, and treat your family and friends to a viewing of "Saints and Scholars," the video from Christian Heritage Cambridge that not only serves as a great introduction to the history of Cambridge but vividly describes why and how Cambridge has played such a foundational role in the development of Western Culture.The "Saints and Scholars" DVD can be purchased for £8.00. (That's about $16.) And here's the specific page where you can order the DVD. (And remember, if you live in the USA, make sure you order the NTSC version.)
