The Way of the Cross is also a way of protection and rescue. It is our hope and our faith, our lifestyle and proclamation of truth. It is the way of God's agony among us and how God draws our attention to injustice and sin among us. On the other hand, it is also how God draws near to us, painfully near in incarnation, in our neighbor and in the stranger's pain. And the Way is God's vindication of justice. . . . This is where God stands in solidarity with all the innocent sufferers as a source of life for those threatened with death.
