Via Dolorosa: A Guide for Christians to Pray the Stations of the Cross
()
About this ebook
Over the centuries, the Stations of the Cross spread across Europe and the British Isles. Eventually, fourteen stations were set, with accompanying books of readings and prayers to guide the Good Friday pilgrims as they walked the way with Christ—going “with him” as he bore his cross from the court of Pilate to the hill of Golgotha, from his judgment and condemnation to his death and deposition from the cross.
Allow these scriptures, meditations, and prayers to accompany you as you walk and pray the Stations of the Cross with Christ.
