Nineteenth-century America was rife with Protestant-fueled anti-Catholicism. Elizabeth Hayes Alvarez reveals how Protestants nevertheless became surprisingly and deeply fascinated with the Virgin Mary, even as her role as a devotional figure who united Catholics grew.

We’re taught that control and ambition are qualities of success, and in times of struggle, you might expect yourself to step up and embrace those qualities. But this can build walls that keep you from healing and spiritual growth.

Evoking spirits is one of the most powerful magical techniques you can use—but, until now, most of the material available on evocation has been virtually unusable because it was written by those with little practical evocation experience.

From the beginning of time, God has called His children to share the Good News. One group of individuals He especially loves to call is artists. Looking at the sweeping majesty of a fiery sunset, or the delicate perfection of a single flower, I know that God is an artist.
