Listen "What Do Anglicans Believe About Praying for the Dead?"
Episode Synopsis
Should Christians pray for the dead? In this edition of Ask the Church, we explore what the Bible and church history say about the practice and why the Anglican church rejects the medieval idea of purgatory. We discuss the difference between prayers for the dead (seeking to shorten suffering) and prayers about the dead (thanking God for their lives and commending them to His mercy).📩 Have a question for a future episode?
