Screwtape's 8th Letter: Is "submission" a dirty word?

Aaaand we're back! Diving straight in to Letter 8 (my favourite letter in the book). This letter covers so much: the Law of Undulation (i.e. the peaks and valleys of our faith), suffering, submission, freedom, and I maaaay also segue into a full break down of the gospel (sorry not sorry).Books mentioned in this episode (apart from The Screwtape Letters, obviously):God on Mute by Pete Greig (a fabulous book to read as we begin Lent about connecting with God when we feel He is being silent)Even If He Doesn't by Kristen LaValley (pre-order this week to REALLY help support the author – this is a fabulous resource to address some of the trite advice we receive as Christians in seasons of suffering).Join the Magic Like This Book Club:https://magiclikethis.substack.com/subscribeRead my essays and join my Celtic Prayer Writing Workshops at The Battle Cry: https://christinalynnwallace.substack.comFind me on Instagram: https://instagram.com/magiclikethispodcastWanting to write a book about what God’s done in your life, but don’t know where to start?
