The Cross He Bore

Banner of Truth, 1996
100 pages

The Cross He Bore by Frederick Leahy is a powerful collection of meditations on the sufferings of Christ. Through 13 brief chapters, Leahy demonstrates the unique ability to draw out biblical truths surrounding the sacrifice of the Son of God and funnel them through the sieve of a sanctified imagination. The results are profound. This is a book to be read slowly and worshipfully. In his forward, Edward Donnelly writes that "in rereading these chapters, I found myself more than once compelled by emotion to stop - and then to worship." It is my hope that this book will help you to have a deeper appreciation for our Lord and Savior and cause you to stop and worship him.
