About this episode

Questions Covered: 03:40 – Archbishop Fulton Sheen is remembered so fondly by so many people, but what might be forgotten is that he took the demonic very seriously.

What did he mean when he described the devil’s temptations of Christ in the desert as “shortcuts from the Cross.”, and where do we see those same shortcuts being offered today? 15:25 – Why does the modern world find belief in the devil embarrassing or primitive, and what do Catholics risk losing when they reduce evil to psychology, politics, or social conditions?…
