Michael also shares his “five stones” for spiritual battle, which serve as a practical and powerful roadmap for staying grounded in the spiritual life: The Rosary The Eucharist Sacred Scripture Fasting Monthly Confession Don’t miss this inspiring conversation and be sure to check out Season 2 of House of David, streaming March 27 on Prime Video.
