Description
This book aims to be the only volume on the Stations of the Cross that a parish or an individual Christian will need. A substantial introduction provides historical, theological and artistic background, together with practical instructions for praying the Stations. The six sets of reflections by diverse authors provide all you need to lead a group or to pray them in private. A central set of illustrations provides a visual stimulus for those praying the Stations at home. The volume can be used as a Lent Book by reading two reflections each day.
