Way of the Cross – Fulton J Sheen

The author of these meditations on the Way of the Cross has a twofold purpose in offering them in printed form. The first is that they may enkindle in souls a flaming love for the Crucified Christ who, through His passion and death, revealed to us that it is only through the Cross that we are ever ushered into glory and eternal life. The second purpose is that those who meditate on the great love of Our Lord for sinners will be kind enough to say a prayer for the author.

Popular radio and television personality during the years surrounding and following the Second Vatican Council, the Servant of God, Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen (1895-1979) established himself long ago as the foremost spokesman for the Catholic Church in America and one of its most prolific writers. The last few years of his life were dedicated to preaching retreats to priests and promoting the daily Holy Hour of adoration as the key to one's personal sanctification and spiritual growth. These Stations of the Cross are the fruit of a lifetime of prayer and study, revealing the profound wisdom and insight into the nature of Christ's suffering and death, as was ultimately also exemplified in the life and death of the author himself, whose cause for canonization has been introduced in Rome.
