Publisher's summary

Fr. Dolindo Ruotolo’s Surrender Prayer brought understanding and peace to countless souls amid the turbulence of the last century. Now, in our age of incomparable uncertainty, this miracle worker and visionary writer offers the assurance you need to resolutely face the final things: death, judgment, Heaven, and Hell.

Listen to this audiobook, and you’ll embark on the ultimate journey of discovery into what happens to the soul after death. You’ll hear true stories of the dead who have communicated with loved ones from the great beyond, you’ll learn how the saints described their mystical experiences, and you’ll investigate stunning supernatural phenomena that remain unexplained by science.

Notably, Don Dolindo provides proof for the existence of Purgatory and explains what it’s like for the souls suffering there. Moreover, he describes the consequences of sin and how the souls in Purgatory are awaiting our sacrificial suffering to be released into Paradise.

Best of all, Don Dolindo offers spiritual wisdom that you can apply to your daily life and shows you how to prepare for a holy death and the glory of the world to come. He describes the remarkable mystical experience of the soul’s awe-inspiring entrance into Heaven and explains the unique power of Our Blessed Mother to help us get there.

You’ll also learn:

  • The most important prayers that help free the Holy Souls in Purgatory
  • Why even venial sin impairs our relationship with God
  • Why good works, almsgiving, and penances are powerful atonements for sin
  • Why we need Our Lady’s maternity, humility, and love for souls
  • Why the saints delight in interceding for us
  • The sublime ecstasy and complete fulfillment that await us when we behold the Holy Trinity in Heaven

Good listen

it was a good book. I think reading it would have allowed me to skip some of the relative worrying. I wish it had more biblical references or deeper dives. I think there are some mistakes like Marry being 78 when she was assumed. However I learned allot. It was a start to understanding Purgatory.

A very important work

This book has helped my spiritual life on many different levels. This book goes into the study of purgatory and is very encompassing in the areas of mortification and the importance of desiring a life without sin.

A powerful book that all faithful should read

I really did enjoy listening but I found myself stopping more often than normal. the beginning was enough to give me great anxiety but that's probably a good thing. if you want a glimps of what purgatory is and how the soul moves on after death, this book is wonderfully informative.

the narration is the weakest link in my opinion. It's important to have strong emphasis on important topics, but when the whole book has that same tone i found it to be rather bland.

Terrible presentation

The speaker was awful. Overly dramatic. So annoying, unable to listen to book. A waste of my credit
