How does the Christian vision of death, evil and suffering differ from the world's?
What does it mean to pick up your cross and follow?
How can we discern our own cross and what does it mean to pick it up?
Is it ever appropriate to take on suffering as a practice of training in the Christian life and how might these questions shape our Lenten observances and disciplines?
Kathryn Greene-McCreight gives here a profound meditation of the life, suffering and ultimate triumph of Jesus of Nazareth. This is not a work of philosophy or theology on the problem of evil. Rather the author draws on her experience as a priest and therapist to delve deeply into these issues- on how people can move from the agony of the cross to the bright morning of resurrection.
