SERMONS OF ST. ALPHONSUS LIGUORI FOR ALL THE TRADITIONAL SUNDAYS OF THE YEAR

 

Expounding on the theme, "What doth it profit a man if he gain the whole world and suffer the loss

of his own soul," St. Alphonsus dwells repeatedly on the Four Last Things: Death, Judgment, Heaven

and Hell. Relentlessly, he brings the reader to considering his own eternal destiny. No one can read

these sermons without being profoundly moved, without turning from evil to good, or without turning

from virtue to even greater virtue.
