The Holy Ways of the Cross: Brief Introduction

This book, translated from French to English, was available to Fr. de Montfort in his early spiritual formative days.  Hear how Henri-Marie Boudon influenced the French School of Spirituality . . . and St. Louis de Montfort.  This book is for someone who is mature within their Spirituality. It explores the scripture above concerning our own crosses, and why they are sent from heaven.

The following was taken from the back cover of the book.

____________________________

The Cross of Christ, writes Henri-Marie Boudon, is “the great masterpiece of the wisdom of God”.  Far exceeding the readers human reasoning, this masterpiece is intelligible only in the light of faith. In this light, Christians can approach the Cross, despise not the weight of their own crosses, and joyfully follow the way of the Lord.

An ideal representation of the French School of spirituality, The Holy Ways of the Cross combines the manifold fruits of theology, mysticism, and pastoral care in guiding its readers along “the Royal Highway of the Cross,” through trials both exterior and interior, toward unity with God.  Complimented by new, illuminating, Introductions from (Queen of All Hearts’ members) Andrew L. Ouellette and Fr. Hugh Gillespie, SMM., The Holy Ways of the Cross is a tool and offers spiritual food and drink for the souls following in the footsteps of their crucified Lord.
