El Viernes Santo de 1991 en el Coliseo de Roma, el Papa Juan Pablo II creó nuevas Estaciones de la Cruz. Alteró las catorce estaciones tradicionales y incluyo una decimoquinta estación para la Resurrección. Todas las Estaciones que su Santidad usó se basaron en incidentes en los Evangelios. El Padre Champlin adapta estas estaciones históricas—con su enfoque ricamente bíblico—con un breve pasaje de los relatos de la Pasión de los Evangelios, una breve reflexión y una respuesta que era adaptada de los Salmos, establecido como un motete. On Good Friday 1991 in the Roman Colosseum, Pope John Paul II created new Stations of the Cross. He altered the fourteen traditional stations and added a fifteenth station on the Resurrection. All of the Stations His Holiness used were based on incidents in the Gospels. Father Champlin adapts these historic stations—with their richly biblical approach—by featuring a short passage from the Gospel Passion narratives, a brief reflection, and a response adapted from the Psalms, set as a motet.
This was the second time I’d read this little book of the Stations of the Cross, and I enjoyed it very much. I will very likely read it again in the future. Great scripture, great reflections & very concise, so easy to use for personal reflection. Highly recommended.
