For February, FFJ and I read, or rather attempted to read C.S. Lewis’ The Screwtape Letters. It sucked. It sucked hard and it sucked long. It was really, very quite bad. But I suppose you’ll find that out of if you listen to the podcast. For March we promise to read something good.

I’m reading this book right now with two differetn women’s groups and though it can be overwhelming at times because of Lewis’ British wrap-around way of writing, the book is a masterpiece and is provoking many of us to examine ourselves deeper than we have in a long time. Perhaps another reading of this book would prove to penetrate more deeply than the first. Truly, dismissing this novel would be a travesty and a misrepresentation of the purpose for which Lewis wrote this book. It’s not mearly a fictional story about demons trying to sabatoge a new Christian…It’s a running commentary on one or more scenarios an emotions we have that inhibit our ability to see ourselves for who we are and for who God is…
