As the Church prepares to enter November—the traditional month dedicated to praying for the faithful departed—how can Catholics deepen their intercession for the souls in Purgatory? On Driving Home the Faith, host Dr. Ken Craycraft welcomes back Jason Gale, Vice President of Content and Production at TAN Books, to discuss TAN’s new edition of The Purgatorian Manual.

Originally compiled in 1894 by the Redemptorists (the order founded by St. Alphonsus Liguori), this 130-year-old devotional handbook has been beautifully restored for modern Catholics. Gale breaks down the spiritual necessity of praying for the Church Suffering, highlighting the manual's 31 days of devotions for November, daily household prayers, memento mori meditations, and step-by-step guides for offering the Mass in union with Christ’s Passion on behalf of the departed.
