Stations of the Cross

Description

During Lent we are surrounded by visual reminders of Jesus' last hours. In Stations of the Cross, renowned author and spiritual master Timothy Radcliffe, OP, offers readers a thoughtful meditation on this powerful devotion. Through word and image Radcliffe offers a profound experience of reflecting on the Stations of the Cross that is both visually and spiritually inspiring. With each reflection, he draws from stunning art commissioned by award-winning liturgical artist Martin Erspamer, OSB. Stations of the Cross is perfect Lenten reading by an author well regarded for his spiritual writings. It is a beautiful invitation to deeper meditation and richer contemplation of this solemn season of prayer and penance.

A former Master of the world-wide Dominican Order, Timothy Radcliffe is now based in Oxford but remains an itinerant lecturer, broadcaster, preacher and retreat giver. His bestselling books include What's The Point of Being a Christian, What's The Point of Going to Church, Take the Plunge and I Call You Friends, all published by Bloomsbury Continuum. Martin Erspamer, OSB, is a monk of Saint Meinrad Archabbey in southern Indiana. He is a well-known liturgical artist and liturgical consultant. Erspamer works in a wide range of media, including pottery, stained glass, and wood, and is nationally known for his illustration of sacred themes.

One of the best of this year's crop of Lent books. The art is stunning and the reflections are profound. Not to be missed. * Church of England Newspaper *
