The Snakebite letters Book

Have you read The Screwtape Letters? The writer here opens with an admission that this book is pretty much the same idea. He's proud of it....cool.

This is an excellent book. Lewis' book is better, but then that's sort of an unfair comparison (except for the fact that the author invited it). Lewis' book is a classic of Christian writing. This one is good but the author himself does limit some of it's effect.

I've read other books by Mr. Kreeft and I like his writing. He does however here aim this book pretty much exactly at Roman Catholics. In the book where Lewis used the word "Christian" ("I see your client has become a Christian") Mr. Kreeft uses the word "Catholic" ("I see your client has become a Catholic"). Aside from that many of the chapters apply souly to the Mass.

I'm not sure of the author's stance or belief as I know many Catholics believe the Roman Catholic Church to be the only church that is Christ's. I'm not sure if that is a Catholic belief or not (as in I don't know if the word from Rome is that if you aren't shriven by a Catholic priest you can't enter God's Kingdom).

Still the book has a lot in it for any Christian reader. If you're a Roman Catholic then it can/will of course apply directly to you...be on point as it were. If like me you're of a Reformed or non-Catholic denomination there's still a lot of value to be found here.
