EBOOK
About
C. S. Lewis' classic The Screwtape Letters brilliantly unmasked the devious
psychological and philosophical roots of human temptation more than eighty
years ago. Building on this timeless foundation, The Bellbind Letters unravels
the targeted attacks against the feminine genius as they manifest themselves
in contemporary family life.
In this book, each thought-provoking new letter from a senior demon to
a new underdemon, Bellbind, sheds light on the unique trials and near
occasions of sin we face as mothers. The demonic, twisted logic in the letters
will challenge and transform us as we uncover the roots of our everyday
temptations.
It is seeing ourselves clearly, in all our weaknesses and failings, that frees us to
surrender all our broken pieces to the tender mercy of Christ the healer, who
makes all things new.
