 The Coming Economic Chastisement?
It’s Not Coming It’s Here! In January 2008, after watching the signs for over two years, I began to write about what is broadly perceived as the coming economic chastisement – the imminent collapse of the global economy. I asked readers: “Are we on the verge of another Great Depression? Are we on the brink of TEOTWAWKI?” (The End of the World As We Know It) It’s later than you think. It’s time to “buckle up” spiritually. Late this spring I was blessed to hear a talk and attend a Mass offered by an American exorcist who was assistant to the well known Father Gabriel Amorth, chief exorcist of Rome. He had a lot to say, but one phrase chilled me to the bone: “I can count on less than the fingers of one hand the number of years remaining before all hell literally breaks loose.” I’ve been working on the final version of “The Coming Economic Chastisement” that will be complete with spiritual preparations and it will soon be available. In the meanwhile, here are preview chapters: Prayers for Protection from Islamic Terrorists and Deliverance from Economic Disaster The Depression Your Grandmother Never Knew Proof in Black and White: News Reports What to Do–When to Do It How to Do It Utilities: Heat, Light, Water and Oil Seasonal: Catholic Costumes For All Saints Day Catholics Coping With Halloween What to do when demons knock at your door Recipes for All Souls Day and All Saints Day Soul cakes, Pan de Muerte, Beans of the Dead, more!
