What Happens After We Die? w/ Dr. James Papandrea | Ep. 111

Catholic Theology Show

How can we recover a robust understanding of heaven and maintain confidence in reaching it? Today, Dr. Michael Dauphinais sits down with Dr. Jim Papandrea, author and professor of Church History and Historical Theology, to explore the Christian understanding of the afterlife. Drawing from early Church Fathers and his book What Really Happens After We Die, Dr. Papandrea presents the resurrection of the body in heaven as a joyful reunion, and discusses how modern misconceptions about the afterlife differ from the Christian vision of eternal life. They also consider how to recover a hopeful view of heaven and confidence in attaining it through God’s grace.   Additional Resources:    * Annunciation Circle (Ave Maria University Monthly Giving Community) * Ave Maria University website * Dr. James Papandrea’s personal website * Dr. James Papandrea’s book, What Really Happens After We Die? on Sophia Institute Help support this podcast and Our Lady's University by joining the Annunciation Circle!
