The Way of the Cross: Praying the Psalms with Jesus

by Fr. Mark Toups

Overview

Experience the way of the cross as you never have before. Rather than meditating about Christ's journey to the cross, pray with him.

Jesus, as an observant Jewish man, would have prayed the Psalms throughout the day, and drawn strength and peace from them.

In The Way of the Cross: Praying the Psalms with Jesus, Fr. Toups invites us to step closer to Christ and pray beside him, drawing strength from Scripture during his last moments before the crucifixion.

Each station features:
A short reading from Scripture
A brief meditation
A Psalm to pray with Christ
