Show Notes

This is the first of our monthly BONUS episodes for our Freely Given book club. Gretchen Ronnevik and Katie Koplin are discussing the Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis this month. This book has a lot of law in it, as fictionally one demon is coaching another demon how to trip up Christians. True to form, the accuser does a lot of accusing.

We talk a lot about different ways truth can be obscured, as well as how to get humans to see others as less human. We talk about tribalism and jargon, living languages and defining terms.

This was a fun, EXTRA long episode. Look for the next BONUS episode in March.

February book (fiction): Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis

March book (biography): Katharina and Martin Luther (The Radical Marriage of a Runaway Nun and a Renegade Monk) by Michelle DeRusha
