In this book club recap conversation, Sarah, Erin, and Rachel talk through one of the most beloved spiritual classics of the modern era: C.S. Lewis’s The Screwtape Letters.
How does Screwtape offer us a unique perspective on the nature of spiritual warfare? What do we learn about temptations large and small? How does the devil seek to tempt us, in large ways and small? In what way does this book open our eyes to the nature of heavenly (vs. hellish) love and the eternal realities that quietly underly all our earthly experiences?
At the end of the episode, Rachel reveals the Ladies’ next book club pick, one that weds three crowd-favorite genres (classic literature, historical fiction, and children’s literature): Elizabeth Goudge’s The Little White Horse.
