The Deceiver: Our Daily Struggle With Satan by Rev. Livio Fanzaga “The devil, the ‘prince of this world,’ even today continues his insidious actions. Each and every man ... is tempted by the devil when he least expects it.” Providentially, perhaps, that is the exact theme of Fr. Livio Fanzaga’s The Deceiver: Our Daily Battle with Satan—the top-selling religious book in Italy in 2000, now in English from Roman Catholic Books. Fr. Fanzaga, the Rome educated and Vatican-endorsed writer and director of Europe’s largest Catholic radio network, warns: Efforts to soft-pedal the reality and continuous threat of the devil have left many Catholics “unarmed and unprepared” to resist him. But the question is: How does Satan tempt and deceive us? How can we see through him, and resist him? Drawing dazzlingly from Scripture, tradition, saints’ lives, and his pastoral experience, Fr. Fanzaga supplies practical answers: Widespread misconceptions about Satan, his methods and his powers (shared by not a few devout Catholics) How Satan “personalizes” temptations to take advantage of your peculiar weaknesses Two “fundamental activities” of Satan, seen in Scripture The False Benefactor: how Satan always has something seemingly “good” to offer at the moment of temptation

The Deceiver: Our Daily Struggle with Satan,
By Joel (Venice, Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Deceiver: Our Daily Struggle with Satan (Paperback)
For those who seriously look within themselves at their struggles against sin, this book will give great insight into how our common enemy, Satan, works. I thought that page by page there were insights not found from the pulpit in most churches today. This is an important read for those who seriously seek to overcome sin in their lives and who may be discouraged from time to time by their seeming "lack of success" in their struggle for holiness.

I can get this book at Roman Catholic Books--which prides itself on reprinting Catholic classics--for @22.95 softcover. What's your deal?
