The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ
Intimate. Inspiring. Humbling.. It was all these and more and I strongly recommend the Dolorous Passion to any and all persons who find themselves wondering just exactly what Our Lord’s Passion entailed and to what humiliations He was willing to submit Himself to for the love and salvation of souls. In reading this I slowly came, and am still coming, to the understanding of just how pernicious and injurious sin is. To us and to our right relationship with God. In particular, Blessed Anne Catherine’s description of what Our Blessed Mother willingly subjected herself to all for our sake was moving beyond words. I will keep this account at hand for the rest of my life.

The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ
I purchased this book in March 2021 near the end of Lent thinking I would have the time to read it before Easter. Since I wasnt able to read it all at that time I put it aside to read beginning on Ash Wednesday of this year. I am so thankful that I waited so that I could read it through without rushing to finish before Easter. The visions of Venerable Anne Catherine Emmerich walk us through every detail of our Lords Passion allowing us individually to internalize just how much he loves us. The details of all the supportingù persons throughout his life give so much depth now to the readings of the Gospels during this holy time of year. I would read bits and pieces of this book to my husband and now he wants to read the entire book himself. There is a wealth of information here that I hope to bring to others in conversation over time. I highly recommend this book to everyone!

Perfect Lent Meditations
Perspective is incredibly important in meditations. I must admit that mine had become rather repetitive, and this book has so deepened my sorrowful meditations and given me perspective and direction that o hadnt before considered. My love for our Savior and his holy mother has so intensified. Regardless of ones sentiments for mystic visions, this is a beautiful (and painful) source to further consider the Passion on our Lord.
