The Crown of Sorrow: 52 Meditations on the Passion of Our Lord in Bloomington, MN

'The Passion of Christ is the greatest and most stupendous work of Divine Love. The greatest and most overwhelming work of God's love.'-St Paul of the Cross
The Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ is one of the richest sources of meditation and prayer and a most fruitful one; as St Francis de Sales said, 'Mount Calvary is the academy of love'. In this small book Archbishop Alban Goodier gives first a harmony of the Passion-a single text woven from the Passion narratives of the four Evangelists-and then 52 meditations on each part of the Passion. The meditations in this book make a perfect Lenten meditation book, entering deeply into the Passion with a meditation for each day, starting in the lead up to Lent.
