Alcorn says to win the battle we must know our God, know ourselves, and know our enemy. Lord Foulgrin's Letters, in unparalleled and compelling fashion, helps us better know each.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Let C.S. Lewis inspire and equip you to share your faith. Evangelism is an extraordinary task; it’s what God uses to bring people from death to life. But it has always been difficult. C.S. Lewis was used by God in the conversions of countless people, from friends and acquaintances in his own lifetime to modern-day readers of books such as The Chronicles of Narnia and Mere Christianity (the most influential Christian book of the 20th century). As Tim Keller comments, "C.S. Lewis was incredibly skilled at getting Christianity across in a way that’s powerful to thoughtful people." So, if we want help with evangelism, there is much we can learn from the clarity and imagination of this hugely influential Christian writer. You may feel inadequate to the task; after all, there is only one C.S. Lewis. But evangelist Randy Newman skillfully helps us to apply the methods Lewis used (storytelling, humor, imagery and more) in our own conversations. You will be equipped to talk about your faith and engage with unbelievers wisely, whatever their attitude towards the Christian faith.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Screwtape Proposes a Toast" by C.S. Lewis is a satirical and thought-provoking work that serves as an addendum to Lewis's earlier masterpiece, "The Screwtape Letters." In this sequel, Lewis revisits the demonic bureaucracy of Hell, presenting the senior demon Screwtape delivering a toast to a group of graduating demons. Through this imaginative and allegorical narrative, Lewis explores themes of human weakness, societal trends, and the subtle ways in which evil can infiltrate everyday life. Screwtape's toast becomes a darkly humorous commentary on the dangers of contemporary ideologies, societal norms, and the erosion of traditional values. This brief yet impactful work offers readers a satirical lens through which to examine the complexities of human behavior and the ever-present temptations that may lead individuals away from a virtuous path. "Screwtape Proposes a Toast" showcases Lewis's keen wit and insightful observations, inviting readers to reflect on the moral challenges of their own time and consider the timeless principles that shape human character.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All of us are faced with the daily onslaught of sin and temptation. We are all involved in a spiritual battle to keep our souls united with Christ so we can attain heaven. The Screwtape Letters and the Catechism brings together two wonderful and significant resources that can help us to grow in spiritual courage. Engaging the Catechism of the Catholic Church from a new perspective, against the backdrop of C. S. Lewis' classic The Screwtape Letters, this book will help you to recognize temptation and engage in the battle against sin. Following Lewis and the Catechism, you will learn how to use the teachings of Christ to outwit the evil one. In this book, each chapter of The Screwtape Letters is cross-referenced with the Catechism. By examining the dialogue between the demons Wormwood and Screwtape, we can apply Screwtape's lessons on temptation to our daily lives. The Catechism provides sound and reasonable explanations of the Catholic Faith, and these explanations debunk the methods of Screwtape. C.S. Lewis masterfully invites us into the diabolical world of Screwtape and Wormwood and the ever-present battle between good and evil. The Catechism, on the other hand, masterfully reveals the teachings of Jesus Christ as a living gift of the Church that shows us the love of God for his children. “This is a wonderfully creative, practical, and inspired book! Dr. De La Torre invites us to look anew at C. S. Lewis’s classic work on the wiles of the enemy, augments it with rich insights from The Catechism of the Catholic Church, and makes it all easily applicable to our daily lives. Scripture, Lewis, the Catechism, prayer ... settle in for a feast!” — Fr. John Riccardo, Executive Director of ACTS XXIX “Dr. De La Torre’s work, The Screwtape Letters and the Catechism, is both timely and engaging. In an era in which secularism is rampant and belief in the diabolical is waning, De La Torre utilizes the work of C .S. Lewis to reawaken Christians to a dark reality that must be opposed through growth in the virtues and the spiritual life. His creative use of the Catechism of the Catholic Church not only offers support for his theological arguments but also demonstrates how a catechetical text can be used to evangelize and further the mission of proclaiming the joy of the Gospel. ‘Stay sober and alert. The devil is prowling like a roaring lion, waiting to devour you. Resist him, solid in your faith.’ This creative and inspiring work is a tool not only for discussion and meditation but also for resisting the devil and putting him to flight.” — Most Reverend Earl K. Fernandes, Bishop of Columbus “It’s been said that the greatest trick of the devil is convincing the world he doesn’t exist. Based on the state of culture, society, not to mention increasing challenges in the Church, it’s easy to believe that the devil has achieved even more success than the Houdinis and Copperfields combined. But as Dr. Marlon so beautifully details in The Screwtape Letters and the Catechism the devil’s tricks are no competition for the Truth of Christ and Catholicism. Eventually the evil one’s empty promises leave us searching for and desiring the only thing that satisfies — a relationship with Jesus within the one, holy, and apostolic faith.” — Teresa Tomeo, syndicated Catholic talk show host, author of Beyond Sunday: Becoming a 24/7 Catholic “Reading C. S. Lewis’s The Screwtape Letters was an important formative experience for me as a young adult Catholic. I only wish I could have had this book to read alongside it. That’s because as a Catholic who was just starting to understand my need for constant conversion, I could recognize in Screwtape’s letters the areas of my life where my ‘Wormwood’ was succeeding, but I didn’t have any clue what weapons I had from the Church to fight back. Dr. Marlon De La Torre has done a great service to Catholics — and all Christians — by providing this companion field guide for spiritual warfare against those who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of our souls.” — Anna Mitchell, Co-host and Producer of the Son Rise Morning Show on EWTN Radio
