The Malgrave Letters about Parenting

About this book

What if the greatest threats to your children are not the obvious sins-but the subtle compromises quietly shaping your home every day?In The Malgrave Letters About Parenting, Dr. Alfred Basta delivers a powerful and unsettling work of Christian fiction in the tradition of The Screwtape Letters. Through a series of fictional letters from a senior demon named Malgrave to his apprentice, readers are drawn into a chilling exploration of modern parenting, spiritual warfare, and the quiet corruption of family life.Alternating between fathers and mothers, the letters expose the hidden dangers of distraction, anxiety, overwork, control, emotional absence, pride, and performative faith. From screen addiction and career obsession to overprotective parenting and distorted views of authority, Malgrave reveals how ordinary habits can slowly reshape a child's understanding of God, love, truth, and identity.Written with theological depth, sharp psychological insight, and pastoral wisdom, this book challenges Christian parents to examine not only what they teach their children, but the lives they model before them.Honest, convicting, and deeply thought-provoking, The Malgrave Letters About Parenting is a compelling call to spiritual vigilance, intentional parenting, and the transformative grace of God.Perfect for readers interested in: Christian parenting Spiritual warfare Family discipleship Biblical fatherhood and motherhood Faith-based fiction Christian living and spiritual growth
