Reading and Watching List: On the Departure of the Soul

1) The Departure of the Soul According to the teaching of the Orthodox Church [9/9/22]

This is an outstanding and exhaustive work that carefully documents the teaching of the Orthodox Church on the departure of the soul, and the Particular Judgement. It draws upon countless Patristic writings, Lives of saints, icons, and hymnography to demonstrate what the Tradition on this topic actually is.

2) The Soul After Death [9/9/22]

Fr. Seraphim wrote what is perhaps the most pioneering English language book on the topic of death in the Orthodox Tradition. Sadly, the book was controversial at the time, not because Fr. Seraphim took liberties or made heretical statements, but due to disinformation spread by untrustworthy sources. The Departure of the Soul According to the teaching of the Orthodox Church vindicates this work.
