Episode description

In which I talk about the spiritual practicing of remembering that we will die, and the hope that we find in Christ's resurrection! Also, I forgot (oof) to say that viewing art & reading poetry/prose can help us practice memento mori. Look for works of art like these and poems similar to the ones I shared to help you in this spiritual practice!
