Its November: Are you Ready for Death?

Fr. Eric Nicolai reflects at Kintore College. In the 1650s a Spanish priest from province of Navarre, Pedro Auxular, wrote a book in Basque titled Gero, which means Later. A book about the practice of the Christian life. The title is striking: later. He warned his reader of the danger of leaving for later the most important aspects of life. So we want to speak today of that Later, but in a different sense, not simply as later, but as the hereafter. Gero is really about the eschaton. The last things, which the church wants us to reflect on now, not later. Music: Mozart, Adagio in C major, K. 356 - Guitar Arrangement - Bert Alink. In Openmus.org
