Four Last Things: Memento Mori: The Catholic Truth About Death and Eternal Life ~ Fr. Ripperger

About this sermon

Death is the one certainty every person must face—but are we prepared? In the first conference of Fr. Chad Ripperger's acclaimed series on the Four Last Things, Fr. Ripperger explains the Catholic understanding of death, why death exists, how to prepare for it, and why the saints embraced memento mori ("remember death") as a path to holiness. Drawing from Sacred Scripture, St. Thomas Aquinas, St. Alphonsus Liguori, St. Teresa of Avila, and the wisdom of the Catholic tradition, Fr. Ripperger explains the difference between the death of the sinner, the lukewarm Christian, and the just soul. He also offers practical spiritual advice on preparing for a holy death through confession, prayer, devotion to the Sacred Heart, the Rosary, and a life of grace. This is Lecture 1 in Fr. Chad Ripperger's series on The Four Last Things.
