Explore the riveting world of spiritual warfare and exorcism as we welcome back the ever-insightful John DiGirolamo to Behind the Mike Podcast with Mike Stone.

Discover the evolution of exorcism rituals and practices from his latest book, "It's Not About the Devil," where John shares exclusive insights from interviews with the co-author of a training manual for exorcists. Dive into the intricacies of how exorcisms have become more formalized and standardized in response to rising demands, with a thorough vetting process involving mental and physical evaluations, and learn about the power of Christ working through exorcists in these complex cases.

Our discussion unravels the risks and misunderstandings surrounding occult practices like Ouija boards and witchcraft, emphasizing the importance of recognizing demons' observational nature and their ultimate goal to distance us from divine love. John's perspective sheds light on the fact that not all challenges are demonic in nature, but personal decisions play a significant role. By strengthening our relationship with God, we can navigate spiritual challenges more effectively, resisting the devil's attempts to veer us away from our path of faith and service.

As we wrap up this captivating episode, John offers hope and strategies for maintaining a strong spiritual life to defend against diabolic influences. He encourages listeners to invoke the armor of God for protection, emphasizing the role of prayer, church involvement, and avoidance of the occult. We’re incredibly grateful to John for sharing his knowledge and urge our audience to seek out further insights in his book series. For those yearning for guidance in their spiritual journey, John's thought-provoking perspectives provide a comprehensive understanding of modern evil and the spiritual battles we face.
