The Way of the Cross

About the Book

The Way of the Cross is an ancient Christian devotion where believers meditate on the passion of Jesus Christ in fourteen steps or stations. This devotion is usually practiced on Fridays in the liturgical season of Lent, a preparatory time for Easter, and on Fridays during the year. The author has incorporated insightful pro-life reflections on this devotion, while discussing a range of issues from abortion and euthanasia to the latest bio-medical technologies. This work is intended especially to assist pro-lifers, schools, and Church groups in their desire to promote justice for the unborn and a culture of life in society.
