A two part interview with David Torkington (www.davidtorkington.com) a spiritual theologian, author and speaker who specializes in prayer, Christian spirituality and mystical theology.

David, what do you think of the new found hysteria for Louisa Piccoratta? I find her writings very odd and almost bizarre! I’m an older traditional Catholic, loving the Tridentine Mass in every way, I’m an outcast by most people now.
The very Mass St Theresa of Avila attended is not described as old and antequated by the modernist church… the new or Novos Ordo is and was the beginning of the fall of the beautiful Church God created. Man is destroying what God built. He won’t stand for it much longer I’m afraid…
Thank you for your comment, Sherri,
I do occasionally get requests from readers to follow Louisa Piccoratta. The truth is that I find all these additional devotions a distraction and so never become involved in them. We have the inspiration from Our Lady herself, the Rosary and meditation on scripture, particularly the gospels must surely take precedance over individual devotions. Please listen to my free course on prayer at https://essentialistpress.com/prayer-to-contemplation-series/ We must remain steadfast to the truth of our Catholic tradition.
Bless you, David
