Pocket Guide to the Stations of the Cross
Encounter the passion of Christ in a deeper and more meaningful way.
See a sneak peek of the reflections from the book:
"Yet here is the great mystery—Jesus holds up this terrible means of death as the very secret to finding fullness of life. Why? Because the mystery of the Cross is the mystery of self-giving love. On the Cross, the God who is love reveals most fully not only his love for us but also the love to which we are called, the total love for which we were made."
—Dr. Edward Sri

Wow. Recommend! Don't hesitate! it's such a great book. This is a small, 150 page book. 3 parts. 1)Explanation of history /evolution of devotions. 2)Traditional and 3)biblical stations.
Though plainly written, very easy to read, this is a deeper journey on the stations of the cross.
The reflections and prayers are inspired and express the magnitude of God's love & sacrifice for our salvation on a very personal level.
Will read many, many times. Now amongst my top 3 favorite books.
So glad I bought.
This resource is great for us who choose to practice praying the Stations of the Cross anytime all year long. Jesus deserves our attention for He is constantly looking after us.
What a beautiful book this is! The size is just right, the illustrations are lovely, and the introduction is insightful. But, above all that; the Stations with meditations and prayers of both the Traditional and the Scriptural are so meaningful and personal. I got this for Lent, but this clearly is a devotion that needs to be used all year. Thank you Ascension and Dr. Sri, well done and God Bless You!
Beautifully done inside & out. Perfect size to slip into pocket or purse. Nice feel to & easy to use. Content is inspiring & brings my spirit to a god place. We’ll done, once again Dr Sri. What a gift you are to our church
The words "he will give up his life as a gift of love to the Father" touched me today. I find myself picking up the pocket guide everyday for a meditation.
