    The Way Of The Cross

    Contributed by Dawn Duryea on Mar 4, 2024
     | 1,095 views

    In today’s Gospel reading, Peter responds to Jesus’ announcement that the Messiah will have to suffer and die by denying the cross. Peter is in essence denying the truth of this teaching – that the Messiah must suffer and by extension, his disciples.

This wilderness, of course, is metaphorical and now we find ourselves in ...read more
