The Soul After Death Lecture Series
What does the Orthodox Church teach about the soul and what happens to us after we die? How do we confront death and keep it before our eyes in order for us to lead a deep Christian life? In this lecture series, we tackle some of these questions along with many others. Death is a timely topic in a modern world plagued by the fear of it.
