For the last several years, the Catholic Church has noted an alarming increase in the number of exorcisms performed. And for some of the most disturbing and vicious cases of possession, one priest is often summoned. With almost two decades in ministry, renowned priest Father Carlos Martins has encountered evil in nearly every way imaginable. From Ouija boards and curses to witches and demonic pacts, Father Martins has battled the ancient serpent in many forms. The Exorcist Files are his stories.

Dan Burke has been present for 24 full rite exorcisms. He survived a childhood where the occult opened doors that terrorized him daily. And the thing he most wants serious Christians to understand about the enemy is not the dramatic stuff. It's false peace. In this episode, Dan joins Ryan Bethea and Father Martins to break down how the enemy manufactures a counterfeit sense of peace at every stage of the Christian life — and how to tell the difference between what God is saying and what the enemy wants you to believe. Topics covered: • Why "I feel peace" is the most common dangerous reasoning in Christian circles • How the enemy targets people who are genuinely advancing in faith • Dan's childhood: Jewish upbringing, the occult in the home, what happened • Father Martins' intake methodology and the four wound categories • Why denomination does not determine whether Christ shows up • What it looks like when a possession manifests — firsthand account Find Dan: SpiritualDirection.com | Avila Institute Thank You To Our Sponsors Ollie.
