The store people may ‘endorse’ it or just take the profits. I have known some Catholic bookstore owners who were highly principled but some who were less so. As always and in everything caveat emptor.I thought that if they sell it, they endorse it.

I have several of her books but more and more it’s making me question reading them.I've used Jesus Calling for many years, and I never heard of automatic writing. This concerns me.

Who is Enneagram?Automatic writing is bad news. Like the worst news. I wouldn't touch anything talking about how to do that with a 10-foot pole.
