The Art of Dying Well

About this book

TO DIE WELL, ONE MUST FIRST LEARN how to live well. In this timeless guide, St. Robert Bellarmine offers a clear and orderly path to preparing the soul for its final passage: the daily practice of virtue, the discipline of prayer, and fidelity to the sacraments.

Dear Reader, in these comforting pages, you will find instruction in detachment from earthly goods, counsel on cultivating sobriety, justice, and piety, and encouragement to embrace fasting, almsgiving, and works of mercy. Above all, St. Bellarmine points to Confession, the Holy Eucharist, Extreme Unction, and all of the sacraments as the great channels of grace in life and at death.

Rich in Scripture and drawn from the wisdom of the Fathers, The Art of Dying Well speaks to every Christian who longs to meet death not with fear, but with readiness and peace, seeing it as the gateway to eternal life with God.
