Is Jesus Still Suffering?
Our Power over the Heart of JesusBy Michel EsparzaLength3h 53m
About this audiobook
The crucifix, a symbol at the heart of our Catholic worship, is a prominent, visual reminder of the suffering of Christ. But do we understand the encompassing reality of Christ's suffering?
Many Christians are unaware that Jesus suffers even now, today—that his suffering is ongoing, not a single event two thousand years ago. This book seeks to shed light on Christ's continual suffering. Through this understanding, we can be further attuned to Christ's sacred humanity—his joys and sorrows—and recognize the urgency to console his Heart.
The author first focuses on friendship with Christ in our spiritual lives, outlining the most helpful means of getting to know him through revelation, the Gospel, and prayer. The second part addresses the two motivations to respond to Christ's love: gratitude and compassion for his sorrowful Heart. This compassion includes a co-redemptive desire to relieve his wounds, which in turn spurs our generosity.
