Patti Maguire Armstrong: Nine Points of Advice to Fight the Devil

"If you're worried about everyone liking you so you don't say anything, then it's yourself you are worried about and caring about. It takes courage to speak up," says Patti (Maguire) Armstrong in this week's podcast. "Leave it to God and pray to the Holy Spirit. I don't know where to begin. I don't know who I'm supposed to sit next to but God does. And He can put us into the right places and, if we give Him permission to use us, He will." Patti and Deacon Geoff were talking about her article in the National Catholic Register "Nine Points of Advice to Fight the Devil."
