Here is the first part of a talk I gave at my parish last week.
You can get it here. (I could not get any of the players to work).
I have written four posts about Purgatory. The first one was a short reflection in 2009, entitled:
"Purgatory: It's Your Choice"
The next three posts actually reflect the content covered in this talk. They are as follows:
Purgatory: Is it Against Christian Sensibilities?
Purgatory in Church History
Purgatory in the Bible
Purgatory (in no particular order):
Purgatory is Real
The Bible Teaches Purgatory (pdf)
"Where is Purgatory in the Bible?"
Scripture AND Tradition References on Purgatory (33 Scripture passages, 28 patristic passages)
Catholic Answers on Purgatory
Our Catholic Faith
Lord Shea on Purgatory
Decent Wikipedia article
