Obedience in the Storm
When you feel God pulling you to do the unexpected, and even when it doesn't work out, we must still obey. When God told Abraham to sacrifice his son Isaac that he had waited years for, he obeyed. When God told David he'd be king, but he ran fo...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 31
The last letter of The Screwtape Letters is about the patient dying and making it to heaven. When he gets to heaven, he realizes all of the deceiving Wormwood tempted him with his whole life. He also realizes that God was there all along. He re...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 30
Fatigue can either make us gentle and kind, or angered and impatient. We can be tempted and deceived when we’re fatigued as well. We have to keep our guard up when we’re tired, and still show love to the people around us. We also need to know w...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 29
Why does God allow dangerous circumstances to happen? God allows us to live in a dangerous world so that we don't become numb to good and evil. We keep our values and stand up for what's right when danger arises. War, famine, earthly disasters,...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 28
Letter 28 is all about Wormwood needing to protect his patient from dying so that he can keep tempting him and trying to deceive him. The longer he lives, the harder it is for him to resist temptation. Getting older doesn’t mean resisting gets ...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 27
Do you ever feel like your prayers don’t matter? That God doesn’t answer them, or if He does answer them you feel like it would have happened anyways because of circumstances falling into place? This letter addresses our concerns on if our pray...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 26
This letter is about how to get men and women irritated at each other. Being unselfish is part of who God asks us to be. The way men and women view being unselfish is totally opposite of each other. And then when we serve each other continuousl...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 25
Letter 25 is about change! Change and permanence are natural parts of life. God created us as humans to love change and permanence, both. It creates a rhythm in our lives that we all have the gift of enjoying. When the seasons change, when holi...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 24
Spiritual Pride: to believe that you’re better than someone else because of your beliefs; believing that because your beliefs are “right” and that you’re better than nonbelievers. What a trap we can fall into thinking that we know better than n...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 23
Distorting our view of Jesus and who He is, that's what this letter is all about. The demons try to make Jesus just a historical figure. But He is God! He's our Savior! And focusing on the resurrection and redemption puts our view of Jesus in t...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 22
What causes chaos in your life? What is the noise that’s so loud that it disrupts your peace? We are in charge of how much peace we have in our life. Peace is a gift from the Holy Spirit that we have in us, but the world can get so loud through...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 21
Letter 21 is about time and us believing that we own our time. Time is a gift from God; we actually don’t own anything. Wormwood and Screwtape share in this letter about getting the human to believe “My time is my own," while heaven and hell la...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 20
Do you believe the lie that you don’t have the “in” look? That you don’t look the way the world is telling you that you should look? This letter expels that lie by exposing how the demons change “what’s in” in each era through the fashionistas,...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 19
Why do you believe God made us? Why did He create our world, us humans, the animals, all of creation? It's because of love. Because He loves us and wants us to love Him back. The devil and the demons don't understand love. So they try to distor...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 18
Letter 18 is my favorite so far! This letter is all about marriage and how the demons have deceived us into thinking that the only grounds for getting married is when you’re in the state of “being in love”. And that this state of "being i...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 17
Food can be such a topic that speaks to you nowadays. It’s everywhere and we can learn anything we want to about what’s healthy and what’s not and what to eat. But if we’re making our bodies and our bellies more important than God, then we are ...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 16
Are you showing up to church being a critic or a student? Are you excited to learn or judging everything from the clothes to the lights to the music? We are called as believers to go to church, be the church, united as one! That’s what Letter 1...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 15
Are you enjoying the present? Right now. Are you happy, filled with knowledge and grace, and living peacefully? All of these things are gifts from God when we enjoy the moments that we have each day. Worrying about our futures won’t add a singl...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 14
God created us to love ourselves and see ourselves the way He sees us. Humility is what this letter is all about, but humility has been distorted by the demons. Having a low self-image is not humility because our Creator made us in His image. S...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 13
"...when they are wholly His they will be more themselves than ever." God wants us to get rid of our old selves, follow Him, and act like Him. Then when we become like God, we are more ourselves than ever. How freeing is that?! We're most free ...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 12
"The only thing that matters is to the extent to which you separate the man from the Enemy." The extent to which we are separated from God is the demon's goal. The separation is so subtle that we don't even realize it's happening. Then on...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 11
There’s a difference between joy, fun, jokes, and flippancy. This letter is all about laughter and the different kinds! God created joy and fun. Those are two emotions the demons can’t know and can’t create. But they can use inappropriate jokes...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 10
Letter 10 of The Screwtape Letters is all about living differently in each circle of our lives… what a trap. We don’t need to be different with different friends. We just need to be our beautiful, authentic selves! True friendships are with peo...
The Screwtape Letters...Letter 9
Have you ever thought that the troughs that we go through in life would last forever? That it's just one bad thing after another happening to us and that there's no hope of it stopping? That's what this letter addresses to us today. We can't be...
