À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Like all deep things in life, the cross is a mystery - yet it reveals clearly God's unconditional love. Ultimately, the cross calls us beyond ourselves to a life lived for others, and for the One who made us.

In a series of profoundly moving reflections, Ronald Rolheiser explains that Jesus' energy, strength, and freedom - like ours - is rooted in love and personal transformation.

À propos de la deuxième de couverture

Daily readings for Lent from one of today's most influential spiritual writers

When we think of Jesus' passion and crucifixion, we often think of his physical suffering and death. But the Gospels themselves do not emphasise Jesus' physical sufferings; instead, the Gospel writers want us to understand Jesus as a faithful lover of humanity, who undergoes moral and emotional suffering without resentment or bitterness.

Drawing from Scripture, story, theology, contemporary culture and his own life, Fr Ronald Rolheiser - one of the most influential spiritual writers of our day - invites us to a new understanding of redemption, and offers profound insights into the meaning of our own loss and suffering.
