Catholic Scripture Study International: Jesus' Passion: The Story of Redemptive Suffering
Overview
Includes five lessons with suggested responses, commentary on the movie, and a brief guide to the Stations of the Cross.
Jesus’ Passion: The Story of Redemptive Suffering examines the scriptural basis of Mel Gibson’s movie, The Passion of the Christ, and looks at how this powerful portrayal of the suffering and death of Jesus relates to the Bible and the teachings of the Catholic Church. Designed to be used alone or in conjunction with the movie, Jesus’ Passion is suitable for individual or group study. If used in conjunction with the movie, the study book includes detailed instructions outlining where to stop the movie each week to correspond to the lesson.
