The Dolorous Passion of
Our Lord Jesus Christ
by Anne Catherine Emmerich
This book helped inspire Mel Gibson to make the movie, "The Passion
of the Christ." Faithful to the Bible story of the Passion and death
of Jesus, it fills in many details and is edifying and inspiring beyond
belief; plus, it is surprising and heart-rending. It will melt a heart of
stone. This book is the best on the Passion we have seen. It is also
wonderful on the Blessed Mother's role in our redemption. Includes a short
biography of Sr. Emmerich. A great, great book for the whole family!

The
Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ CD
According to John Christopher
Walker
"There is no greater love than this: To lay down your
life for your friends." John 15:13
Opening with this antiphon, sung
beautifully by a cappella choir, this new setting of the Passion is
powerful, tender and haunting, evoking all the pathos and drama of
Jesus' suffering and death. The inspiration for it, the composer
explains, came from his desire to give added meaning and power to
the Passion reading on Good Friday, not only to contrast with the
passion reading on Palm/Passion Sunday, but also because it precedes
the Veneration of the Cross.
Reverent and emotionally immediate,
the music is a very appropriate setting for St. John's telling of
the story. It's simple without being spare, dramatic without being
melodramatic. Arranged with parts for organ, SATB choir, narrator,
Jesus, Pilate, Peter, a maid, a slave and a temple guard, Walker's Passion
also involves the assembly, which sings easily memorized refrains
that reflects on key moments in the Passion.
This innovative setting gives a new
voice to a familiar text, placing the narrator's spoken part over
keyboard accompaniment and giving dramatic crowd part s to the
choir. Jesus sings in contrast to Pilate, who speaks. Based on three
short melodies, the part of Jesus (included in the full score) can
be learned quickly by a priest or deacon. All parts, in fact, are
relatively easy to learn and perform, accessible to the resources of
a good parish choir.
The beautifully recorded CD reveals
the dramatic potential of this music. Divided into 17 tracks, one
for each of the main sequences of the Passion, it makes an excellent
preparation and rehearsal tool, in addition to being inspirational
listening for Lent and any time we meditate on the sorrowful
mysteries of the Passion.

Passion of the Christ and His Mother, The Linkage of Exodus and
the Night of the Passover
From well-known Marian author and
research professor, Dr. Courtenay Bartholomew, comes the companion
book to Mel Gibson's important film "The Passion of the
Christ."
"The Passion of the Christ and His Mother" is perhaps
the most detailed, inspiring, and moving account of the Passion
you will ever read. The author expands on the film and reproduces
the unspeakable anguish of Our Lord during the last 20 hours (the
movie covers the last 12 hours) of His life.
Based on revelations from the Venerable Anne Catherine Emmerich
and others, the book provides further insight and detail such as:
* A full account of the Last Supper
* A detailed description of the agony of Mary
* The medical aspects of the Crucifixion
* The history of the Shroud of Turin
* A theological explanation of the why the Passion was necessary
* And much more
Both Mel Gibson's film and Professor Bartholomew's companion book
are sure to spark controversy and debate but above all fuel the
fires of faith for years to come. 96 pages (Item

The Passion of our
Lord Jesus Christ
prepared and with notes by
George R. Szews
This book shows how
several readers can proclaim the Passion on Palm Sunday or Good Friday and
do it well. Matthew is not Mark is not Luke is not John. Each account of
the passion is unique. That’s the starting point in this careful and
pastoral approach. Participation and understanding by the entire assembly
will increase when everyone clearly hears each facet of the story on which
our lives are founded. Rather than simply dividing the Passion into the
parts of Narrator, Single Speaker, Christ and Crowd, this book allows the
evangelist’s understanding of the Passion to be heard and pondered. An
introduction and specific commentary preceding each Passion account is
included. Here you’ll find proclamation tips and suggestions for musical
refrains, acclamations and hymns. The cover is suitable for use in front
of the assembly and, inside, the size of the type, the use of sense lines
and the arrangement of the page allows for ease of proclamation by
readers. The text is exactly as given in the revised lectionary.
We suggest that parishes
purchase five copies per scheduled liturgy: one copy for each of the three
readers, one copy for the presider and one copy for the music minister.

The
Passion of Jesus in the Gospel of John
by Donald Senior, C.P.
With this volume on John
the Passion series concludes its study of the meaning of Jesus' death in
each of the Gospels. But though last, it is certainly not less important
or a repetition of the other Gospels. In fact, John's portrayal of the
death is as distinctive and unique as the rest of this
"maverick" Gospel.
Father Senior explores how
the rest of the Gospel prepares for the Passion story. He then gives a
detailed analysis of the Passion narrative itself. Finally, he explores
the theological motifs that dominate the Passion narrative. With scholarly
finesse and deep pastoral awareness, he makes John's vibrant message of
the Passion speak to our life and times.
". . . should be
purchased now and read before John's passion is solemnly proclaimed next
Good Friday."

The
Passion of Jesus in the Gospel of Luke
by Donald Senior, C.P.
The recent resurgence of
scholarship on Luke's Gospel is due, in part, to this Gospel's special
appeal for an age in which questions of economic justice, peace, and the
prophetic role of the Churches questions all important in Luke are so
urgent.
Father Senior's
exegesis yields a strong sense of what Luke intended to communicate to his
readers and, to some degree, what may have been the circumstances
that shaped his message. He reveals the Luke who presents Jesus as a
champion of the poor and marginalized, whose message of justice is
proclaimed with a sharp prophetic edge.

The
Passion of Jesus in the Gospel of Mark
by Donald Senior, C.P.
Which came first: a
coherent Passion story or the Gospel of Mark? Contemporary biblical
scholarship is divided over this issue of how, exactly, the Passion story
developed.
Whatever the shape of the story prior to
Mark, it must have been imprinted with Christian experience as well as
historical memory. Mark, in turn, felt free to retell and reinterpret that
story for his own time and place. The Passion of Jesus was not only a
story from the past but also, in the sufferings and hopes of the
Christians of Mark's time, a living reality of the present.
The readers of this insightful work will
find that the Passion of Jesus as told by Mark continues to hold meaning
for the present. Paperback, 176 pages, 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"

The
Passion of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew
by Donald Senior, C.P.
The Word of the cross is a
living word, crying out for reinterpretation as life takes new shape and
expression. Reinterpreting the Gospel was particularly compelling for
Matthew's church because his Christians lived in a time of profound
transition. The Passion of Jesus, then, was not simply a story of
suffering out of the past but a point of identification for the Christians
of Matthew's own time.
For us twentieth-century
Christians, who also know the peculiar suffering and hope of living in an
age that is both dying and being born, the Passion of Jesus according to
Matthew has special meaning. Paperback, 200 pages, 5 1/2" x 8

Praying
the Passion/Living the Gospel
by Malcolm Cornwell, C.P.; Foreword by Donald Senior, C.P.
This book has one purpose:
to assist adult believers in praying the gospel message, with special
emphasis on the narratives of Christ's passion. Each concise reflection
invites the reader/pray-er to grow in gospel knowledge and spiritual
insight. The reflections would also serve well as a source for a Holy Week
retreat or for fruitful preaching during Holy Week.
Malcolm Cornwell draws on
both the power of his community charism and his strong interest in
biblical/liturgical spirituality to represent a new and prayerful
perspective on the timeless stories of the Lord's passion and death.
Practical suggestions for prayer and guided reflection follow each
chapter, and a short bibliography points the way to further reading and
reflection. Paperback, 80 pages, 5 3/8" x 8 1/4"
