Ian and Galen delve into the biblical "Easter eggs"—hidden scriptural references and deeper themes—within Letter 15 from C.S. Lewis’s classic work. They highlight how the demonic perspective in the letter trivializes World War II, framing it as insignificant compared to the far greater spiritual war described in Christian theology. The hosts stress that while the physical war was devastating, Lewis uses it as a metaphor to point toward the ongoing, unseen spiritual warfare that humanity faces, emphasizing the importance of living in the present, practicing gratitude, and keeping eternity in mind.

The discussion expands on the concept that the Christian life, especially, is fundamentally one of spiritual warfare, drawing parallels between the battles described in Genesis, the daily struggles against sin and evil, and the ultimate conflict foretold in Revelation. The hosts argue that this warfare is not limited to grand historical events but is experienced daily through personal battles, temptations, and tragedies—citing examples from both scripture and real life. They assert that the demonic realm actively seeks to infiltrate and destroy, and that recognizing this ongoing spiritual battle is crucial for Christians to protect themselves and their families.

Finally, the conversation addresses how the church’s acknowledgment of spiritual warfare and demonic forces has diminished over time, shifting from a central focus in early and medieval Christianity to a more subdued presence in modern teachings. The hosts lament the loss of warfare imagery in hymns and church culture, suggesting that this shift has left many Christians naive to the reality of spiritual conflict. They urge listeners to remain vigilant, embrace the biblical call to "put on the armor of God," and recognize that, while Christ’s victory is assured, the daily struggle against evil remains a central part of the Christian walk.

Look out for our upcoming book "Confronting Evil in Our Time,” which will be released this year.
