Book Summary
Drawing inspiration from C.S. Lewis's classic satire, Christian apologist Walter Martin utilizes the persona of the senior devil Screwtape to expose modern spiritual deception. Through a series of demonic letters, the book unmasks the subtle ways Satan exploits theological liberalism, cults, complacency, and cultural secularism to lead Christians astray.
