The State of the Blessed Dead

"The State of the Blessed Dead" by Henry Alford is a collection of four sermons Alford delivered for Advent in 1868 at Canterbury Cathedral. This book is an emotional read that looks at the more sentimental side of theology. It aims to comfort readers about what happens to loved ones after death by describing their care in Heaven and the guidance they then receive from Jesus. It even dives into resurrection and their final peace.
