Into Your Hands
$9.95
Meditations and Prayers on the Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ Edited by Norman J. Muckerman, C.Ss.R.
A collection featuring the writings of Saint Alphonsus Liguori on several Lenten themes, including the passion, death, and resurrection of Jesus. An illuminating work from an authority on spiritual matters, this book reflects, prays, and meditates on the events surrounding Christ's passion, death, and resurrection. These meditations are based on the holy Evangelists and explore the necessity of Christ's passion for our Redemption. Further meditations reflect on heaven and the beatific vision, linking Christ's sorrow and sacrifice to the events of his glorious Resurrection.

This book of reflections, prayers, and meditations is meant to inflame us with the love of our God who has loved us so much that he suffered such a bitter death for our sins. It is also meant to give us hope-a hope and a trust that for us, as for Jesus, there is a life after life and that we are an Easter people and Alleluia is our song. 128 pages; Paperback.

What Jesus Saw From the Cross
$16.95
By: A.G. Sertillanges. A $17 pilgrimage to the Holy Land! Never has there been spiritual reading as powerful as What Jesus Saw from the Cross, the book that will intensify your love of Jesus by burning the events of His Passion into your memory and imagination.

Written early in this century by Rev. A. G. Sertillanges, a priest who lived in Jerusalem, this acclaimed devotional classic gives you vivid and dramatic details not included in the Gospel:

With Jesus, you'll be jostled by crowds as you enter Jerusalem, choke on the dust of the narrow streets, experience the exotic oriental smells of the city at festival time, share the Last Supper with the disciples, stare into the face of Jesus' accusers, and be there as He dies on the Cross.

Read it slowly and prayerfully. The vivid details and the gripping narrative will soon take over: you'll find yourself engaged in a personal retreat, an interior pilgrimage, and a profound meditation on the love and sufferings of Jesus on the Cross. Paperback, 252 pages, Sophia Institute Press.
