Screwtape's 14th Letter: Pride cometh before...

from Magic Like This – A C.S. Lewis Book Club Podcast · host Christina Lynn Wallace

Oh dear. The Patient is becoming humble. Not artificially humble – no, but truly humble in a way that has Screwtape quaking in his boots. But ahh… for the counterattack. How can Satan sideswipe the rest and ease of true humility in exchange for something… manufactured and exhausting? In this episode, we dive deep into the mechanics of humility, and you might find that the invitation to be truly humble brings more ease and rest than you ever realised.Magic Like This on InstagramMentioned in this episode:The Screwtape Letters by C.S.
