Since Lent has just begun, we invited Fr. Dwight Longenecker to talk about his Screwtape-inspired Lenten books, The Gargoyle Code and Slubgrip Instructs.
Following on from his previous letter about the differing philosophies of Heaven and Hell, Screwtape now directly turns to the subject of “love” and explains to his nephew why the whole idea makes no sense to him!
For Christmas this year, David gave Matt a book by Dr. Chris R. Armstrong called “Medieval Wisdom for Modern Christians”, in which the author encourages his readers to draw from the riches of the Medieval Church, using C.S. Lewis as their example and model. In today’s episode Matt discusses this book with its author.
Former guest of the show, Dr. Jason Lepojärvi, returns to discuss Screwtape’s thoughts on love, sex, and marriage, as well as to listen to some Tina Turner and ask “What’s love got to do with it?”
For the “Skype Session” today, I spoke to Matt Nelson about a blog post he had written concerning where to begin with Lewis’ writings, “C.S. Lewis for beginners: A Guide”.
After seeing the tweet announcing her goal to be invited onto a podcast in 2021 to gush about C.S. Lewis, we invited Brooke Medina onto the show to do just that!
Today we hear about one of the Seven Deadly Sins, gluttony. Screwtape talks about how this vice can be disguised so that it can go completely unnoticed by the patient!
Matt returned as a guest on the Alto podcast. In this episode, Matt shares his vocation journey which led him to launching his own Artificial Intelligence-driven Hedge Fund.
The devils plan to send the patient church shopping!
