    When I was much younger my father, who was an usher, would turn off one set of the church lights after the 14th station. We would all quietly file out of the Church...it was a very solemn and sad moment. We did not hear the resurrection reading until Easter Sunday and what a joyful moment that was! Now we hear the Easter reading every Friday during the Stations ...having heard it every week detracts from the joy of hearing it on Easter Sunday. Having the 15th station during the rest of the year is great but I really wish the Priest would not read it during Lent.

    I have a booklet called House of our Lady (Meryem Ana Evi). The story of the Virgin Mary's Last Year's from The American Society of Ephesus, Inc. George B. Quatman Foundation. It details how her house was visualized by Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich, and found in Ephesus, Turkey, was and is maintained. The house is on a very tall hill and Our Lady made stations of the cross up the path to her home. Thought it was very pertinent to your comments about our mother Mary and her pain. And maybe worth a show

    All that about the nails certainly puts it into perspective for me. I have a large cyst in the arch of my foot, and after working at my job a few days in a row (unloading freight trucks at Wal-Mart), it tends to not take much to remind me it's there. I've described many times as stepping on a Lego that I can't get away from because it's inside my boot. Now, the thought being unable to escape some nails holding you in place . . . 😢. At least I can limp a little, until my pain subsides.

    If you’re in poor physical shape it is a challenge walking uphill along the Via Dolorosa. Jesus was so badly scourged and having to wear the crown of sharp thorns digging into his scalp while carrying a heavy cross uphill - it’s no small feat. And uphill, in spite of it not being several miles, with the heavy weight he was carrying and his severe wounds and weakened condition it was beyond agony for him - can you imagine any of us having to go through a sliver of what he endured! And the walk up to Calvary is no small feat!

    Thank you so much for this great episode and all your episodes. I very much appreciate watching this show weekly. Each discussion is a tremendous opportunity to grow in holiness and become a better disciple of Christ--at least I aspire to be, even though I fall more than I follow. Moreover, I also appreciate having men who are fathers and shepherds. Much appreciated in these troubled times of so many misguided people yelping out "toxic masculinity." When Fr. Pagano talked about Our Blessed Lady as portrayed in The Passion of Christ having to endure watching the passion of Our Lord and her Son, I could not help but tear up. Fr. Pagano is a Father who understands the heart of Our Lady who had to endure her Son's unspeakable torment. The two Ryans and Jordan are fathers who understand the suffering heart of a parent when his child is in pain. I wish you all and all the listeners a most Blessed Lenten season. And in fewer than 2 weeks, Our Lord will be Resurrected. Deo gratias! Praise Our Lord, Jesus Christ, now and forever!

According to accounts, Padre Pio related that Christ told him, this, was the most physically painful to endure.

    Analysis of the Shroud of Turin shows that Jesus was between 5'9" and 5'11" which was much taller than the average Hebrew man at that time. One can also see from the Shroud that he was of medium build, not a skinny weakling as so many artists have depicted him, so he likely weighed over 140 lbs. As a carpenter, he would have been very strong. Nevertheless, after the brutal scourging and blood loss, we can understand why he fell while carrying the cross and needed help.

    The Cross makes sense in a way when one considers that Christ is the perfect human as God intended us to be, He is the mold all of us are judged by, Our Just Judge. Likewise, creation was made in and for Him. He is the New Adam. Among uncountable other honors, Our Blessed Lord, is the hero of the story of history, of the theodrama. Following His example, we find who we are meant to be.

    Referring to Deuteronomy 6;4-7. It is mandatory for parents, especially fathers to share the faith with their children. To at least on weekly basis to share, discuss the faith with the children. It is very sad when Christian children is unaware of Jesus passion and death on The Cross for our salvation! That Easter egg is a simple symbol of new life because of Jesus death and resurrection. That the new, transformed life must reflect in our thoughts, actions, gestures, words, and prayers that leads to industriousness, purity, kindness,, good stewardship.

    15:04 all historical accounts of Jesus's physical appearance describe him as a head taller than other men, which even in those times is well over 6 feet. And he was a carpenter! That profession takes muscle, even now and Jesus was using primitive tools. The 3D print created from the Shroud of Turin didn't depict a small man either. I think 150 pounds is a very small estimate.

    "Why Every Catholic Should Pray The Stations Of The Cross" Believer Translation: Because according to the bible people have done things against the will of god and so this is a way to repent those transgressions for forgiveness. Amen Non Believer Translation: Because 2000+ years ago humans created a way to say this is what your god wants from you and if you don't do what we wrote down in our special book this god will burn you in hell for eternity. So get down on your knees and beg/grovel god for your forgiveness, oh and by the way give us money and this god loves you. Amen

    Thanks team for this topic. Way of The Cross is my favourite daily devotion during Lenten days. I contemplate my personal experiences for every station i prefer to do it alone at night before sleep. Am also reading “ The Dolorous passion of our Lord Jesus Christ by Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich “ which is adding more inner details to every station. @ Ryan - Seraphia is Veronica’s real name as mentioned in this book >> Jesus had anxiety and He can understand those who suffer from it- 😊 That was a good insight
