The Way of the Cross.
All Catholic churches have a crucifix which depict Jesus nailed to the cross and his side pierced. The wounds where his is nailed are often referred to as stigmata. Most churches also have the "stations of the cross" displayed on the walls. Some of the stations deal with injuries to Jesus - he is wearing a crown of thorns, he falls, he dies on the cross. Many churches have stained glass windows and there are a myriad of subjects that can appear.
it is called that cause it is where a person stands of falls like Jesus stood somewhere and he also fell for us
Jesus falls three times in the Stations of the Cross.
The traditional Catholic devotion of the Stations of the Cross typically includes 14 stations.
They are all London Main Line Stations and also London Underground stations.
The Stations of the Cross are usually a series of pictures or statues. They can use any artisitic medium.
The Stations of the Cross are primarily prayed on Fridays during Lent.
The Stations of the Cross depict Our Blessed Lord carrying the cross up to His death and burial. Lent is the preparation for Christ to carry His cross, die on it, and be buried.
Usually a "living Stations of the Cross" mean that you have live people posed acting out or portraying each Station.
I don't think that many (if any) Protestant churches have the stations of the cross - I know Presbyterians and Baptists do not.
Stations of the Cross
The Protestant stations of the cross hold significance in the Christian faith as they symbolize the journey of Jesus to his crucifixion and resurrection. They differ from the traditional Catholic stations in that Protestants may have fewer stations or focus more on the spiritual meaning rather than specific events.
