The Secret to Dying Well
This course grew out of Fr. Steven’s enthusiasm for the timeless writings of the great Catholic writers on the spiritual life and today’s ever more pressing need to increase awareness on the fundamental themes of salvation and eternal destiny, life and death and so forth.
The outcome is not just a course on Eschatology commenting on the Four Last Ends of Man: Death, Judgment, Heaven or Hell. But rather, it’s a course designed to change your outlook on life, to transform your existence and, above all, to prepare you for eternity. After all, the secret to dying well is living well in the first place — knowing how to care for our own soul.
