An Exorcist Tells His Story

 General Description:

Fr. Gabriele Amorth

In this powerful book, the renowned exorcist of Rome tells of his many experiences in his ministry as an exorcist doing battle with Satan to relieve the great suffering of people in the grip of evil. The importance of the ministry to "expel demons" is clearly seen in the Gospels, from the actions of the Apostles, and from Church history. Fr. Amorth allows the reader to witness the activities of the exorcist, to experience what an exorcist sees and does. He also reveals how little modern science, psychology, and medicine can do to help those under Satan's influence, and that only the power of Christ can release them from this kind of mental, spiritual or physical suffering.

An Exorcist Tells His Story has been a European best-seller that has gone through numerous printings and editions. No other book today so thoroughly and concisely discusses the topic of exorcism.

"This is a very important book. Every pastoral leader, clergy and lay, should read it. The ministry of exorcism badly needs to be restored and Fr. Amorth's book is a significant contribution in this direction."
- Ralph Martin

"Fr. Amorth tells us about his personal confrontations with the devil on hundreds of occasions. Those who deny or doubt the power of the devil will be shocked at what they find in this book."
- Fr. Kenneth Baker, S.J.

Fr. Gabriele Amorth is the Chief Exorcist of Rome. He has performed hundreds of exorcisms over many years.

Amorth presents this truth with explanations and examples that show the real side of the devil.

Fr. Amorth starts with an explanation of the centrality of Christ and Satan's relationship to it, explaining that, to understand the need for exorcisms, it is important to understand what the devil's goal is. He then continues with an explanation of the power of Satan, with examples and description of the different types of harm that the devil can cause humans, and what the reasons are of why a person might be possessed. He then gives an explanation of how the exorcist figures out if a person is really possessed, and how the exorcism works. The last chapters talk about the dangers of witchcraft and the Full Review...
