"I went from an indifferent apathetic Sunday Mass attending Catholic Christian to an on fire Catholic Christian in a few short years. What reignited my faith? The many encounters I had with the occult and diabolical."

So says renowned Catholic apologist and retired veteran of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department, Jesse Romero. Now for the first time in print, Romero reveals the harrowing details of his experiences with the demonic while working for the LASD. Discover the true stories of spiritual warfare being waged in the streets and alleys of L.A., including:

Romero's encounters with Richard Ramirez, the infamous "Night Stalker"

How the Rosary drove out a demon that had taken hold of a young man

What happened when inmates involved in the occult would try to say "Jesus is Lord"

How a young man who had committed suicide returned to beg his parents for prayers to release him from the pains of Purgatory

...and much more.

The Devil in the City of Angels is much more than a catalog of strange and terrifying events. It exposes Satan as the Father of Lies so we can see how he works, and how to defeat him. Drawing on his own experiences as well as the most authoritative sources, Romero offers the reader numerous cautionary tales, ut also that hope that is only found in Jesus Christ and his Church.

What are the angels really like? What will we feel and sense in heaven? What would it be like to experience the void before Creation? These are some of the otherworldly questions Mother Angelica takes up in Mother Angelica on God, His Home, and His Angels. In this book we experience not just Mother Angelica the teacher, but Mother Angelica the mystic.

The foundress of the Eternal Word Television Network was first a cloistered, contemplative nun. This book contains the fruits of her Eucharistic contemplation, written while in adoration of our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament. Out of that mystical communion come mystical and theological insights into the nature of God the Father, the experience of heaven, and the ministrations of His holy angels.

Richly illustrated with fine art, Saints and Angels describes the lives and works of many familiar and unfamiliar saints and angels. Among those included are the apostles, John the Baptist, Joan of Arc, and the first native-born American saint, Elizabeth Ann Bayley Seton. Details of feast days and patronages are also discussed. Coverage includes information about choirs of angels, guardian angels and fallen angels.

Under Angel Wings is the true story of a young girl in Brazil who saw and heard her Guardian Angel during most of her life. The book is filled with real-life anecdotes which are edifying, moving and often humorous. Cecy (See-see) Cony (1900-1937) tells story after story of how her Guardian Angel - whom she calls her "New Friend" - kept her from lying, stealing, revenge, immodesty, and from watching certain movies. She also describes how he protected her in moral dangers which she did not even understand, and how he aided her when she got into trouble because she was a "simpleton," as she puts it. Most beautiful of all, she relates how her Guardian Angel taught her to make sacrifices for Jesus and guided her in practicing acts of charity. Cecy describes many incidents of temptation from her youth. In each one, we see the beautiful way in which her Guardian Angel led his little charge to perfect contrition for her faults and turned all these difficult situations to good. Under Angel Winds reveals God's great love and care for His children on earth. It reminds us that He has also given each of us our own "New Friend" who has a similar, even if less visible, love and care for us. "My sisters read a lot. This book, they say, is undoubtedly the best....I think this book is awesome....I think you and your children would benefit from this book A LOT. I recommend it highly, highly." - Mother Angelica
