The Pain of Christ and the Sorrow of God: Lenten Meditations - Paperback
by Hubert Van Zeller (Author)
"It is not merely penance that the Church asks of us during Lent. It is extra prayer."
Some preachers are more notable than others. Fr. Gerald Vann, O.P., was ordained in 1929 at the remarkable age of twenty-three in a Dominican Order known for its careful discrimination about its candidates. Despite fame both in his native England and in the United States, his brilliant and accessible writing has largely disappeared from view.
Of great significance is this compendium of Lenten inspirations. In seven chapters marked by originality and striking clarity, Fr. Vann gets under the rind and into the heart of every aspect of Christ's Passion. You'll learn:
What the Agony in the Garden tells us about our own struggles, sorrows, and sins
What Christ's betrayal reveals about the depth of our love, fait
