The Passion of Jesus

Throughout history, the Passion of Christ has been, at the very heart of our faith, a mystery of love, sacrifice and redemption.

But what does it truly mean to meditate on Christ's Passion? Father Mark Baron, MIC, explains. Then hear the story of Cathy Viola, who has faced heartbreaking loss in her life yet reveals the power of trust, perseverance, and God's unfailing grace.

Chris Alar, MIC, and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on our weekly show, "Living Divine Mercy," airing on EWTN every Wednesday at 6:30 pm ET, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am ET.  Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina Diary excerpts, as well as real-life examples of people who are living Divine Mercy in their lives, you will learn why Jesus said Divine Mercy is mankind's last hope of salvation!
