Why do you invoke them now?

Yeah, so the name of Jesus, and this is really the, the antidote to that third sign of the demonic, that loss of identity.

Um, so whenever you call upon someone, it makes them present, and with Jesus in particular, there's a presence, and He always comes in battle formation to fight for us.

We, we were all born to live.

Jesus was born to die.

He was born to win that fight.

He does win that fight.

Father Dave, why did he believe a quiet hour before the blessed sacrament is the answer to the demonic, and, you know, not raging against the people who you feel wronged you?

And what's your story?

So I first heard the call, I first felt a call when I was nine years old, serving for daily Mass.

And we were, we always went to Mass on Sunday, but we weren't daily Mass goers.

But for, there's like a two-week period, my dad was going into work late.

And in those two weeks, he took us to daily Mass, then dropped us off at public school.

I went to public schools my whole life.

So I was a brand new server, and that's when I first wanted to be a priest.

Can you give us just a summarization of what these are so we can be better prepared and aware of this?

So how many of the sites did you visit, the archival sites?

So I checked them all out in one form or another.

Like in Washington, D.C., everything's online.

Oh, that's easy.

Okay, you know.

Other places, I contacted people.

I looked online to what I could.

How can Bishop Sheen be an occasion of encouragement for people who are struggling?

Is that true, or is that just the feeling that I get? It feels like it's worse today, but perhaps maybe it was always this bad? I mean,

mankind has always been fallen, but like...

Once upon a time, to hurt someone, to be violent, you had to go and find someone to hurt them.

Now you sure are tough from behind your computer, and more and more weapons you kill people from a distance.

Jordan Peterson, he goes through, once upon a time, how many naked women could you see? I mean, just 200 years ago, it wouldn't be easy.

Now, on your phone, on your computer, it's just all over the place.

And then the schizophrenic mentality, which is the loss of identity.

That's probably kind of the extent of all my dreams.

Probably not,

you know.

So it's just a ton of stuff, a ton of stuff.

And then you have to really know his philosophy and his theology because there are topics related to the demonic world.

that are not always so obvious but as you get to know his thought you okay i know where he's going here so there's uh there's some topics that you know you might skip over but if you really know his theology you know he's he's talking about demonic here like you need to grab that article i need to listen to this talk you know i need to take a good look at these things so um about half of the book is made up of talks he gave And it was tricky because in the early 70s, he was going around giving talks, giving retreats, but it was really one retreat he was giving, but he didn't use notes.

So every talk's a little different.

Even when it's the same talk, it's a little bit different.

Can you please share that? Ooh,
