Understand why the Church remembers the departed.
Saint Nektarios of Pentapolis joins two questions: the immortality of the soul and the meaning of prayers and memorials for the dead. Scripture, patristic writings, philosophy, and worship enter his extended argument. This English translation gives readers a focused Orthodox work to study when remembrance of loved ones leads to deeper questions about the soul, the Divine Liturgy, and Christian hope beyond death.
