The Screwtape Letters

Description
For our special Halloween episode, we’re diving into the sinister world of C.S. Lewis’ The Screwtape Letters —and we’re bringing in a special guest, Rev. Brian McGreevy, to guide us through the shadows!  Written during the turmoil of World War II, Lewis crafted this satirical and chilling tale to explore the subtle ways in which evil infiltrates everyday life. Together with Rev. McGreevy, we explore not just the chilling strategies of Screwtape and Wormwood, but also the habits and practices that can protect us from such spiritual pitfalls. We chat about the fascinating way architecture can point us to Heaven, the best way to read and absorb these letters, and speculate on what future Screwtape Letters might address in our modern world.  With key excerpts and haunting insights, this episode is the perfect blend of spooky and thought-provoking. So, dim the lights, brew a cup of something warm, and join us for a journey into temptation’s darkest corners. You can find Rev. McGreevy's letter by letter podcast of The Screwtape Letters at this link.  Connect on Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠@merecslewis⁠⁠⁠⁠, 'X' aka Twitter at ⁠⁠⁠⁠@MereCSLewis⁠⁠⁠⁠ or email at [email protected].⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Please like, rate, or subscribe.
