JOY READS: Starting Wednesday, August 19th, 10:00-11:30 AM, HC Room #211
Join us as we read and discuss C.S. Lewis' timeless classic, The Screwtape Letters. Written as a series of fictional letters from a senior demon to his apprentice, this thought-provoking book offers a surprisingly insightful look at the spiritual battles Christians face every day.
Through wit, humor, and profound biblical wisdom, Lewis exposes the subtle ways temptation, distraction, pride, fear, comfort, and self-centeredness can quietly pull us away from God. By seeing the Christian life from an unexpected perspective, we'll gain a deeper awareness of the enemy's tactics and learn how to recognize them in our own hearts and lives.
Together, we'll explore questions such as:
~How does spiritual warfare often appear in ordinary, everyday moments?
~What habits help us remain faithful to Christ?
~How can we discern the difference between God's voice and the subtle lies that seek to distract us?
~What does it look like to pursue humility, love, and obedience in a world full of competing influences?
Whether you've read The Screwtape Letters before or are opening it for the first time, this book challenges us to examine our hearts, strengthen our faith, and become more intentional in our walk with Christ. Rather than leaving us fearful of spiritual warfare, it points us toward the hope, victory, and grace found in Jesus.
Come ready for thoughtful discussion, encouragement, and practical application as we learn together how to stand firm in our faith and grow as disciples of Christ.
