    The Stations of the Cross retrace the steps that Jesus took on his journey to the crucifixion. Originally, Christians would make pilgrimages to Jerusalem to walk the actual path but it became difficult. Churches began erecting stations within their own buildings and towns so that people could participate locally. Artists helped preserve and share the story of Jesus' sacrifice through sculptures, paintings and other works incorporated into the stations. Walking the stations is meant as an act of worship, prayer and reflection on what Christ endured to save humanity from sin.

    The Stations of The Cross

    VO: (bradley)
    The Stations of the Cross, The Way of the Cross, The way of sorrow, the Via Delorosa... it has many names, but it has the same meaning...the journey of suffering that Christ took to die for you and me. It dates back centuries, all the way back to the legalizing of Christianity by Constantine in the year 312. Early Christians would travel great distances to walk the way of the cross. To retrace the steps that Christ took on his path toward death. Stations were marked, signifying certain places and scriptures along the way. But it wasnt easy to travel to Jerusalem, and once it was taken over by Moslim Turks, it became increasingly unsafe. So churches, towns, and parishes began to erect these stations in their towns, making it easier for Christians to connect with Christ in this way. Sculptures, paintings, stained glass, and other art forms became the great stories of the Gospel, in order to preserve the truth and keep the faith alive.

    When was the last time you slowed down. Turned the ringer off your phone, or turned off the TV? Maybe its time for us to take a few moments and reflect. To be silent and just listen. To meditate, pray, and think on the sacrifice that Christ made for us. The Stations of the Cross can be that time for you, for us.

    For centuries Christians have offered their gifts to the church. Singing, teaching, caring for others, and art. Art was for the church. Art told the story. And even today, we are using art and visual worship to tell the story of Christ, to enhance our worship, and bring artist back into the church. Artists like Tim...

    The journey to the cross was not easy. It was painful, bloody, dark, and his death was real. But that wasnt the end of the journey. Sunday is coming. But not yet. Not before Friday, not before death. Without the cross, there is no resurrection. Without Christs death, there is no life. The Stations of the cross are designed to help us re-enact that journey as an act or worship and devotion. No music, no lights, just you and the journey. We invite you to slow down and walk as Christ walked, retracing his steps, his suffering, his sacrifice. And as you reach then end know that Christ is with us, even in our darkest of nights. Through his death, we see the great light, the light of salvation.
