I picked up this book at the local bookstore to browse through as I drank my tea…hours later I was 100 pages in and couldn’t put it down. I ended up reading the book in one sitting there in the bookstore. Needless to say, wonderful book! This book is written by a journalist in Italy who followed an American priest who was sent to Rome for training in exorcism. There has been a resurgence of this ministry and the Church of Rome is seeking to equip its leaders appropriately. This book highlights the new course taught in Rome concerning the rite of exorcism, the priest’s apprenticeship there in Rome and does this all while weaving in the Church’s teaching on evil and exorcism. If you are at all interested in this topic, read this book! May God grant more qualified, godly, experienced exoricists to His Church.

How awesome!! And ironic that Rome is the leader in preparing people for the ministry of exorcism. I so quickly dismiss the supernatural and am glad you found this book… what a great reminder that we fight not against flesh and blood!
