An Exorcist Prays – Msgr. Milivoj Bolobanić – Catholic Spiritual Warfare Softcover Book

The Christian life is not lived by fear of darkness, but by remaining close to the Light. In An Exorcist Prays, Monsignor Milivoj Bolobanić draws upon his experience as an exorcist of the Archdiocese of Zadar, Croatia, to address spiritual warfare, temptation, prayer, and the importance of remaining firmly rooted in the sacramental life of the Catholic Church.

Rather than treating evil as something merely sensational or distant, the book turns attention toward the ordinary spiritual choices of everyday life. Its central concern is the danger of gradually distancing oneself from God—when prayer is neglected, Sunday worship loses its place, Confession becomes infrequent, and habits of faith slowly give way to spiritual indifference.

Against this, An Exorcist Prays directs the reader back toward the foundations of Catholic life: prayer, conversion, the Sacraments, Sacred Scripture, and confidence in the saving power of Jesus Christ.

Monsignor Bolobanić writes from the unusual pastoral perspective of a Catholic priest entrusted with the ministry of exorcism. Yet the value of the book extends beyond the subject of formal exorcism. It encourages Catholics to consider the broader reality of spiritual struggle and, above all, the ordinary means the Church gives the faithful for growing in holiness and resisting temptation.

Throughout the book, biblical quotations are drawn from the New American Bible, sponsored by the Bishops’ Committee of the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops. Scripture therefore accompanies the book’s reflections as a recurring point of reference.

The text also follows the conventional inclusive usage explained by the publisher: terms such as man, men, mankind, he, his, himself, brothers, and sons are used inclusively where applicable and are intended to encompass both men and women.

At 96 pages, this English-language softcover is substantial enough for thoughtful spiritual reading while remaining compact at approximately 7″ × 5″. It is well suited for a Catholic home library, personal devotional reading, study, or as a resource for readers seeking a Catholic perspective on spiritual warfare and the importance of maintaining a life centered upon God.

The subject may be spiritual warfare, but the greater lesson is not to become preoccupied with evil.

It is to remain close to Christ.

To pray when prayer becomes difficult. To return to Confession when one has wandered. To remain faithful to Sunday Mass. To choose, again and again, the sacramental life of the Church.

Because the Christian answer to darkness has always begun in the same place:

Turn toward the Light.
