Now you can ponder Christ's Passion Through the Heart Mind & Soul of Saint Thomas Aquinas!
Fr. Philip Chavez, S.O.L.T.
Two years ago when Mel Gibson's The Passion hit the movie theatres, it sparked muc conversation and caused a widespread resurgence in public interest and fascination in Christ and what He suffered. Sentiments, questions, misunderstanding, misconceptions-even unfair attacks-have been invoked because of this blockbuster movie. Why the great interest? Why all the controversy? How can a single film stimulate so much discussion and debate?
Profound Yet Practical Insights

Given incredible gifts and graces by God, this Doctor of the Church has always been seen as a safe and sure guide for knowing, understanding and accepting truth of God's word. Saint Thomas' knowledge of Scripture, the Fathers of the Church, as well as his own contemporaries, makes him stand above all other theologians throughout the history of Church. From his illuminating teaching, you will soon find out that the Passion of Our Lord was willful, free, purposeful and ordained by God-and not unduly compelled upon the Savior.
