During WWII, C.S. Lewis wrote “The Screwtape Letters,” a series of letters from a senior devil to his trainee, Wormwood, outlining his efforts to secure the damnation of a British man. Screwtape expresses concern about Wormwood’s patient, who is staying home for Easter, a time when humans are vulnerable to the Enemy’s influence. Screwtape urges Wormwood to prevent the patient from attending any Easter services, especially those that might introduce him to the Enemy’s teachings.
