The Subtle Attack Of The Enemy Most Christians Miss (Ft. Fr. Carlos Martins & Dan Burke)

What if the most dangerous move the enemy makes against you doesn't feel like an attack at all? Dan Burke — author, speaker, trainer of clergy, and former president of EWTN News sits down with Ryan Bethea and Father Martins to break down one of the most overlooked concepts in spiritual warfare: false peace. Dan draws on the discernment tradition of Saint Ignatius of Loyola to show how the enemy offers counterfeit comfort at two very different stages of the Christian life. For those struggling with habitual sin, he manufactures apparent pleasure that mimics peace. For those genuinely advancing in holiness, he engineers distractions that look like blessings- good things in the wrong priority.
