https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Screwtape_Letters

The Screwtape Letters is a Christian apologetic novel by C. S. Lewis and dedicated to J. R. R. Tolkien. It is written in a satirical, epistolary style and while it is fictional in format, the plot and characters are used to address Christian theological issues, primarily those to do with temptation and resistance to it.

 

Plot overview

The Screwtape Letters comprises 31 letters written by a senior demon named Screwtape to his nephew, Wormwood (named after a star inRevelation), a younger and less experienced demon, charged with guiding a man (called "the patient") toward "Our Father Below" (Devil / Satan) from "the Enemy" (Jesus)

Thanks mabel,

I can just about manage to listen and concentrate - small bits at a time. I think the meds do this to one`s brain. Anyway, did enjoy and appreciate the `teaching` there.

all the best, Marilyn.
