Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Here Dan Burke presents an indispensable, practical field guide for engaging in daily battle with the Adversary - combat that is both inevitable and winnable. Burke will help you recognize the ebbs and flows of consolation and desolation, and distinguish between the voices of God and of Satan. The battle for our souls is unavoidable. The saints won theirs by learning how to be spiritual warriors and by recognizing that we become stronger through battle and grow weaker from avoidance. With this book as your guide, you'll grow in strength and contentment as you learn: How to make every negative thought obedient to Christ, St. Ignatius's revelations exposing how the Devil seeks to influence us, The three principal causes of desolation-and what you must do when it afflicts your soul, The Paradigm of Ascent and the Five Steps to Sanctity, The three ways you can discern "Good Spirits" from "Bad Spirits" Proven methods for moving away from sin and toward self-giving love of God and neighbor Book jacket.
Includes bibliographical references (pages 101-104).
