Sunday Synopsis

My set of Christians. Sometimes we can be prideful about the particular group of Christians we associate with. That is just what Screwtape is hoping for in his latest letter.

Screwtape has calmed down a bit from the previous letter's blow up. He is back to instructing his nephew on effective means of corrupting the patient's faith.

Screwtape is angry with his nephew. Not only has he allowed his patient to fall in love with a devout christain, but he is also working to get Screwtape booted from his post. There is trouble in the camp!

Ah, victimhood. When we say something has been taken from us that was never really ours to begin with. This is the tactic Screwtape turns to in this chapter of the Screwtape Letters.

Things are still going poorly for Screwtape and Wormwood. Wormwood's patient is living a chaste single life, waiting for the right woman to marry. What will Wormwood do? Listen in for Screwtape's advice.

Screwtape realized he has made a mistake, and is trying to clean it up. In previous letters, he admitted that God really loves his creation. In this letter, Screwtape tries to set the record straight that God really doesn't love us, but has some other motive for His relationship with us.

Love and marriage. Our culture today may have a different view of it that God did when he created it all those years ago. That may be in no small part to the efforts of Screwtape and the like.

In this chapter of The Screwtape Letters, we talk about gluttony. It's a subject we in the US don't like to talk about much, but are certainly guilty of.

Wormwood's patient has been attending the same church since his conversion. This is rather distressing to Screwtape. He would much prefer the man shopping around to find a more 'suitable' church. What is his solution? Listen in to find out!

God wants our minds to be on what we are doing now, and how we are living for eternity. Screwtape would much rather us be focused on the past or the future. Why is that, and what does the Bible have to say about it? Listen in to find out!
