“Be sober and vigilant. Your opponent the devil is prowling around like a roaring lion looking for [someone] to devour.” 1 Peter 5:8
In today’s world, a soul looking to God is under constant attack, the ‘lost’ soul trying to hear the ‘still, small whisper’ of God’s voice is being overcome with the noise of our world. We live in a time of demons, witches, spells, anger, ‘partisan’ hatred, distrust, prevalent sexual sins and pornography, and so much more to attack the soul and destroy it before it can find God’s defense.
Now, Disney is releasing a new cartoon, “the Owl House”, that promises to introduce young viewers to a world of demons and witchcraft.

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle.
