I spent all day at a workshop given by the Biblical School today.
The wonderful Dr. Peter Kreeft presented on "The Last Four Things," Death, Judgment, Heaven and Hell.
Since I have been thinking an awful lot about death lately, this was a wonderful thing for me.
If you are not familiar with Dr. Kreeft, please avail yourself of his books, he is a prolific author. If you ever have a chance to see him, do so.
I went from there to mass this evening. I am absolutely wiped out from a day of thoughts so deep, but so encouraging.
I will have to look the author and his books up. Thanks and glad you had such a good day!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great workshop. I hope death is a long way away for me, but one should always be prepared. I hope it's a long way away for you too Mary-C.
ReplyDeleteOh I have heard of Peter Kreeft. I even downloaded one of his lectures. "Seven Reasons to be a Catholic." He's convert.
Joyce - You can find a few of his lectures to download for $2 at Lighthouse Catholic Media. Here:

I see he's got quite a few books on Amazon. Is there a particular book you might recommend Mary?
I'm glad you had an enjoyable day.
ReplyDeleteOn Dr. Kreeft's website there are many free lectures. They are good.

Wow, what a blessing you got to hear him speak! Sounds like an awesome day.
ReplyDeleteSorry, Manny, I failed to answer your question. I absolutely LOVE the book "Three Philosophies of Life."
ReplyDeleteOh is Dr. Kreeft's sight wonderful. It will take me a decade to go through all those free audio. Thanks a bunch Mary-C, for that and the book suggestion. Now if only Scott Hahn will give away his lectures free. Any idea? ;)
ReplyDeleteUmmmm, Manny, for some reason, I don't see that happening soon.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you are enjoying the Dr. Kreeft's site. He is really a gifted speaker as well as writer. With a great wit too!
