S03 E04: Screwtape Letters Pt 3: Eternity versus Time
Listen now
Description
Today in Part Three of the Screwtape Letters we cover Letter #15. This letter is all about time and how we can touch eternity while staying in the confines of time. We gave this letter its own episode because it is foundational to understanding how the devil attempts to pull us away from God by distracting us from the present (where time touches eternity).   God is asking for our trust in his divine providence so we rely on Him alone in the present moment and as we will discuss in this episode, the evil one is going to try and make us rely on ourselves only by keeping us constantly fixated on the past or future.   Our challenge this week is to sit down and make a list of 5 things you are looking forward to in the future and 5 things you are scared about in the future. And then go through the list again and invite God into each hope and fear and surrender each one to him.   Next week we will continue with Letters #22, 25, 27, and 29 in Part Four.   // Please leave us a rating and review on iTunes and be sure to share this with your friends and on social media! #arisebelovedpodcast
