Spiritual warfare shapes every aspect of our lives, and our understanding about it greatly impacts the outcome. As Christians, we are called to face this battle head-on, standing firm against the forces of evil with unwavering faith and confidence in our ultimate triumph in Christ.


In a world rapidly departing from biblical values, the encroaching culture of darkness is unmistakable. Many are raising awareness about the advance of evil and bearing witness to demonic manifestations. In doing so, however, they often communicate a sense of fear, causing believers to become anxious, superstitious, and preoccupied by the evil they seek to overcome.


Dr. Sean Tobin presents a view of spiritual warfare that’s rooted in God’s providence, emphasizing relationship over tools, and the freedom that flows from God’s presence. Within these spiritually power-packed pages, Dr. Tobin will show you why God’s grace is sufficient to overcome the enemy and how to put on the armor of God through His Word, His Eucharistic presence, and the sacramental life of the Church. Through remarkable true stories of deliverance and healing, he also reveals:

  • How parables of God’s mercy offer a path to restoration and wholeness
  • Three key ways that God uses the devil for your benefit (according to St. John Chrysostom and the wisdom of of the Church Fathers)
  • How the saints’ tenderness and compassion assist in the deliverance of souls
  • Ways to overcome fear and how to live without it as a child of God
  • How to open your heart to the Holy Spirit and rest in the King’s embrace
