Help Teens Study and Share The Screwtape Letters!

For over 70 years, teenagers have loved reading The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis but have struggled to completely understand and share what they read. Today, The Screwtape Letters Study Guide for Teens makes it easy for teens to not only read the book, but to study and share this iconic classic with their friends.

The Screwtape Letters is a brilliant and satirical look at spiritual warfare and the dynamics of temptation. Screwtape, a senior demon in the bureaucracy of Hell, writes letters to his incompetent nephew Wormwood, a junior devil. The younger demon’s assignment is to corrupt a young man living in London during the tumultuous days of World War II.

Using Scripture references, discussion questions, and relatable stories, The Screwtape Letters Study Guide for Teens takes teens on a journey through each of the book’s thirty-one letters demonstrating the Christian struggle with morality, temptation, and good and evil providing them with the solution found in the grace, love, and power of God.

Detailed character sketches and an easy-to-read book summary provide deep insights into each character and letter of the book. To help with those more difficult discussion questions, a complete Answer Guide and Scripture Reference Guide is available for free online. This complete Bible study experience is perfect for youth groups, homeschool groups, and independent Bible study.

Alan Vermilye is an Amazon Best-Selling author of many books, including his modern-day revisions of The Pilgrim's Progress and The Life and Death of Mr. Badman. He is also the author of the most trusted study guides for many C. S. Lewis classics, including The Screwtape Letters, Screwtape Proposes a Toast, The Great Divorce, and The Problem of Pain. In addition, he’s written study guides for the Charles Dicken’s classic, A Christmas Carol, and his favorite movie, It's a Wonderful Life.

This study guide does a great job of making The Screwtape Letters relate to the world facing teens today. The concepts in the book are timeless, but teens might not see that, so this help parents and teens apply the letters to life today.

The study guide helps to breakdown the letters than can be difficult to understand at times, especially since there are some language differences between CS Lewis and today’s teen. Overall the guide focuses on the main points of each letter and gives practical self reflection and life application. I’m a homeschool mom doing this study with two teens, age 15 & 17.

Using with youth group of 7th thru 12th graders. Questions in the study guide spark in-depth conversations. Very helpful in tying God's word in with CS Lewis's Screwtape Letters.

I love the Screwtape Letters and this guide was perfect to help the teens in my group make the connection to their own lives! Definitely, recommend!

I just purchased the Screwtape Letters Study Guide for Teens for our youth group. It is an amazing book that helps our group understand the themes and types of temptations we face on a daily basis. The questions are thought-provoking and provide hours of discussion. Great job by Alan Vermilye!
