How Jesus Suffered: A Doctor Explains (w/ Dr. Thomas McGovern)

What Christ Suffered examines the passion and crucifixion of Jesus Christ through the eyes of a physician, detailing Jesus's suffering from a physiological and medical point of view. And... the book is even more than that. It is also a reflection on Paul's words to the Colossians: "Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I complete what is lacking in Christ’s afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church." In other words: how can we suffer well and how can we suffer for the benefit of others?

Dr McGovern is Bishop Caggiano's guest this week on Let Me Be Frank, and I'm confident that this book would be a tremendous resource for you this Lent.

Oh, and what prompted Bishop Frank to say: "Harvard... we don't talk about them"? Pax Christi, Steve Lee The other guy on Let Me Be Frank
