  • Finding God in Grief & Bereavement | Mortality, Purgatory and Praying for the dead | Ep38

    Finding God in Grief & Bereavement | Mortality, Purgatory and Praying for the dead | Ep38
    Nov 13 2025

    When we lose someone we love, life can feel deeply changed. How do we find God in this experience of grief?

    When Br Giovanni Castellano's father died suddenly, he soon found himself writing. It wasn't long until he had written a whole book of his spiritual reflections on grief.

    In this episode, Piero and Br Giovanni explore a Catholic understanding of what happens when we die, how to find God in grief, purgatory, CS Lewis's experience of grief and why we should pray for the dead.
