Four Last Things: Heaven | What REALLY Happens in Heaven? ~ Fr. Ripperger

About this sermon

What is Heaven really like? In the 3rd conference of Fr. Chad Ripperger's powerful series on The Four Last Things, he explores the Catholic Church's teaching on Heaven, the Beatific Vision, the Light of Glory (Lumen Gloriae), the Communion of Saints, the resurrected body, and the eternal happiness God has prepared for those who die in His grace. Drawing from Sacred Scripture, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Augustine, St. John of the Cross, and centuries of Catholic tradition, Fr. Ripperger explains why Heaven is infinitely greater than anything we can imagine, why the Beatific Vision is the fulfillment of every human desire, and how our life of prayer and sanctifying grace prepares us even now for eternal union with God. This is Lecture 3 in Fr. Chad Ripperger's series on The Four Last Things.
