Resisting the Devil: A Catholic Perspective on Deliverance

Find Your Way to Spiritual FreedomDo you find yourself struggling with a particular sin or dysfunction over and over again? Do you feel hopeless in finding freedom despite your best efforts? Do you still feel guilty, ashamed, and doomed to repeat a besetting sin, even after receiving the sacrament of Reconciliation?In Resisting the Devil, author Neal Lozano shows that sometimes evil spirits tell us lies that lock us into sins and personal problems. He explains the practice of deliverance, a way of dealing with such demonic influences that is supported by the teaching and tradition of the Catholic Church. Lozano's Unbound Model, based on three decades of experience in deliverance ministry, builds a bridge between the sacrament of Reconciliation and exorcism. People only very rarely need exorcism.Readers of Resisting the Devil: A Catholic Perspective on Deliverance willLearn how to recognize the activity of evil spiritsSee how deliverance from spiritual bondage can be gentle, safe, and effectiveUnderstand how deliverance differs from exorcism and how deliverance and Reconciliation can work togetherRead the testimonies of women and men who have been freed through deliverance ministryResisting the Devil is a thoughtful work that facilitates a balanced dialogue between deliverance ministry and the Church's rite of exorcism. I warmly recommend this book to anyone journeying with individuals variously afflicted by the Evil One. -- Rev. Jeffrey S. Grob, Associate Vicar for Canonical Services for the Archdiocese of Chicago
