On the Soul and Resurrection: The Spiritual Classic of Hope in the Face of Mortality

This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.

Saint Gregory of Nyssa, one of the most profound Christian theologians of the Fourth Century, offers a timeless masterpiece in On the Soul and Resurrection. A moving dialogue with his elder sister and spiritual mentor, Saint Macrina the Younger, on her deathbed, On the Soul and Resurrection is at once intimate and profound. As a reflection on the nature of the human soul it engages with the long Hellenistic tradition of similar works, yet with a distinctly orthodox Christian perspective. The saints explore the nature of the human soul, its purification, its ultimate union with God, and the resurrection’s cosmic implications, presenting a hopeful vision of eternal life grounded in divine love that still resonates across the centuries. This perennial classic remains an essential work for all seekers of wisdom and spiritual sustenance. This edition includes an extended introduction providing valuable context for the work.
