"A moving tool for Lenten reflection."--Provident Book Finder
An abandoned child . . .
A peasant burdened by a load of wood . . .
A political prisoner behind bars . . .
Four martyred church women . . .
A mother grieving for her murdered son . . .
In these images and others spiritual writer Henri Nouwen sees the ongoing passion of Christ. Rather than despair they lead us instead "to help us unite our own broken humanity with the humanity of the men, women, and children portrayed," Nouwen writes. "This union becomes possible through the suffering and risen body of Jesus. In and through Jesus, our world can become one because in his divine love he embraces all of us and desires that we all will be one as he and his father are one."
