About this audiobook

This repack of Randy Alcorn's gripping bestseller delivers us from ignorance of the devil's schemes. Foulgrin, a high-ranking demon, instructs his subordinate on how to deceive and destroy Jordan Fletcher and his family. It's like placing a bugging device in hell's war room, where we overhear our enemies assessing our weaknesses and strategizing attack. Lord Foulgrin's Letters is a Screwtape Letters for our day, equally fascinating yet destinctly different -- a dramatic story with earthly characters, setting, and plot. A creative, insightful, and biblical depiction of spiritual warfare, this book will guide readers to Christ-honoring counterstrategies for putting on the full armor of God and resisting the devil. Alcorn says to win the battle we must know our God, know ourselves, and know our enemy. Lord Foulgrin's Letters, in unparalleled and compelling fashion, helps us better know each.

    The awareness of Heaven as a place the Lord Jesus wants each of us to be, and the efforts of Satan to send us to hell are clear in this book. Read it ! and make a choice to believe in Jesus as your Saviour, and by His grace I will meet you in Heaven.

    This is a modern version of the Screwtape Letters. I really like that the author added a piece of "real life" in between each chapter that was a letter. It made the people seem much more real, and the book was better in that it wasn't just a rewrite of C.S. Lewis. Obviously, things happen faster in this book than they normally do in real life, but that leaves me with a sense of hope for what can happen when you really let the Holy Spirit take over. I will read this book more than once, I am sure!

    I read this on the Logos Hope ship as there is a copy in their library. It is a modern version of CS Lewis' "The Screwtape Letters." The story revolves around a family and their everyday activities. The author allows readers to listen to conversations taking place between demons as they scheme and plan to disrupt and distract the family from their God ordained tasks. It is very readable particularly for those who struggled with "The Screwtape Letters" in some places due to the complexity. This is a much easier read.

    However, I think the balance between demonic activity and Christian responsibility has been slightly lost here. If we see "demons" in everything we can blame our own failings/sin on these demons and never get anything done. Whilst the enemy is active and we need to arm ourselves (Ephesians 6) we should also remember that Christ is victorious and interceding for us in prayer. There is an emphasis within the book on prayer which is another good aspect but I'm not convinced that the author has accurately detailed the reality of spiritual warfare. I'm also not sure how helpful this book will be to newer Christian's who may be afraid of these things if they don't understand the position they hold in Christ.

    I would recommend this book to maturer Christian's who can read it and take the Biblical principles from it. I wouldn't recommend it for newer Christian's.

    It's not easey to follow in the footsteps of C.S. Lewis, one of the greatest spiritual writers ever known. Alcorn steps up to the plate with a barrage of ideas and truths. I actually ended up preferring Foulgrin's over its predecessor THE SCREWTAPE LETTERS.

    I enjoyed the addition of human perspective amidst the demon-penpal-style writing. You really begin to care for Fletchers...cheer them on even...and mourn for their heartaches.

    Although a work of fiction, Alcorn has great insight into the lies of the enemy. This book will stay with you, and you'll want to come back to it time and again. Happy reading.

    A powerful book on the behind-the-scenes spiritual warfare activity in each person's life. The struggle between light and darkness is clearly pictured as a series of letters from Satan's helpers and their plans to destroy the live of the characters in the story.

    Very much like C. S Lewis's Screwtape Letters but also with the background story of the person the demon is trying to destroy.
