In a world captivated by spiritual spectacle—YouTube exorcisms, internet deliverance ministries, and self-proclaimed demon hunters—what does true healing look like?

Orthodox Exorcism: Healing the Soul Through the Church offers a sober, in-depth exploration of how the Eastern Orthodox Church understands and practices spiritual healing through exorcism—not as a sensational display, but as a deeply sacramental act rooted in humility, prayer, and the life of the Church.

With clarity and discernment, this book:

Defines exorcism through the lens of Orthodox theology, not pop culture;

Unpacks the ancient prayers of Saints Basil the Great and John Chrysostom;

Shows how Confession, Communion, and Holy Unction are the true weapons of spiritual warfare;

Exposes the dangers of prelest (spiritual delusion), emotionalism, and false deliverance ministries;

Compares Orthodox practice with Roman Catholic ritualism and Protestant charismatic excess;

Warns against the misuse of online exorcisms, SRA narratives, and misdiagnosed mental illness;

Calls the reader to a life of ongoing healing and union with Christ—not just a one-time “fix.”

For those seeking a clear, patristic, and spiritually grounded understanding of exorcism, this book is both a corrective and a guide. It points not to fear or spectacle, but to the quiet, powerful deliverance that comes only through Christ the True Healer, working in and through His Church.
