"The Dolorous Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ" by Anna Katharina Emmerich is a deeply felt spiritual journey from the early 1800s. Told through the eyes of a pious nun famous for her visions, the story takes us through the final, painful days of Jesus. Filled with themes of compassion and sacrifice, the book opens with the author preparing the reader for a journey of meditation. She shares how hard it is to carry the weight of what she sees and reflects on her devout life and sensitivity to the spirit world. Divine visitors, vows to shoulder the pain of others, and a strong desire to understand Christ's Passion show the reader that she is an emotional woman who wishes to share her truth with other Christians.
