Product Description In the style of C.S. Lewis and THE SCREWTAPE LETTERS, this modern twist on the classic novel challenges contemporary readers to think carefully about the supernatural world using modern technology to influence our lives. The author writes Years ago, as I began to walk with the Lord, He used many of the works of C. S. Lewis to encourage me and challenge me to think carefully about the implications of following Christ day by day. Second to Gods Word, the single book the Lord seemed to use the most in those early steps with Him was The Screwtape Letters. Over the years, our culture has changed . . . but Satan hasnt. He is still deceptive, still powerhungry, and still seeks to snatch as much and as many as he can, making slaves of all whom he can dupe into not trusting Christ. With thanks to the Lord for using Mr. Lewis to challenge me to think carefully, I offer to you the opportunity to do the same. Attached are numerous emails I seem to have received by mistake. In each case, the mail was clearly meant for only the regional assistant Rail (Liar) and sent by another who was posted as his director, manager or superintendent, evalS rekaM (Slave Maker). I often forwarded these to friends to receive their input and from time to time shared them in a chat room. When I received any sort of response, I have shared them with you as well. As you read, please remember that with firewalls, system crashes and softwares that do not seem to work well together, email does not come through clearly at times. In addition, be reminded that much of what floats around there on the web is blatantly false. While it did appear that each was encrypted, software I had recently downloaded appeared to decrypt the messages. With that in mind, it is my hope that evalS rekaMs messages to Rail might provide useful snapshots of some of the avenues our enemy is traveling today as he continues to seek to lure us into focusing on anyone or anything other than Jesus Christ. As I have continued to chew on the emails that have come my way, I am turned every day back to His throne of grace.

Echoes of C.S. Lewis July 2, 2008 How does the Devil wage war?
Emails to Rail reminds readers that demonic strategy hasn't changed in a millennia - the same tricks, the same death, the same pain - just repackaged for each generation. Ironically, the author, Larry Doughan, chooses to tell the story of a demon in training using references to modern technology and email.
As C.S. Lewis, author of the Narnia Chronicles, did a generation earlier with The Screwtape Letters, Larry Doughan not only reminds this generation of the power of evil, but also that Satan's power can be overcome. And unlike demonic war tactics, this read is far from repackaged goods. Eloquent and poignant without becoming preaching, lighthearted, while still reverently truthful - dont' miss this must read.
The book reads fast and is broken down into individual "emails" making the book convenient to read even in bite-size junks. Although I couldn't put it down, I could see some readers using the book as daily devotional.
