Course Description

The Screwtape Letters, written by C.S. Lewis, has long been a classic of Christian literature. First published in 1942 this highly original work has assisted many people to grow in their understanding of temptation and the many ways in which Satan tries to distract us from our true goal; God. The class will be composed of a combination of lecture and discussion about the themes of the "letters".
