Combining sacred scripture, storytelling, and personal reflection, draws readers into a heartfelt and inspiring contemplation of Jesus’ sacrifice and His triumphant victory over death. Evocative charcoal illustrations and raw, vivid stories voiced by those present at Christ’s trials and crucifixion capture the pain, power, and passion of the Savior’s suffering on humanity’s behalf.

Deeply moving and personal, the forty devotions work equally well as individual reading or in a community setting. Inspired by the centuries-old practice of the stations of the cross,  The Via Crucis invites contemporary believers to find fresh meaning in contemplation and prayer on what it means to carry the cross and follow Christ.
