Enter the biblically historic world of Simon of Cyrene, where a
world of grief, revenge, and Dennis Patrick Slattery and tender
devotion awaits. There, families are torn apart, marauding soldiers
enact their violent ways, and random events suddenly disrupt life.
Along this journey there will be encounters with Pontius Pilate,
Veronica, Mary, and the sons of Simon, Rufus and Alexander, as they
seek to grasp the mystery of a compassionate Nazarene, serenely
putting into practice the kingdom of God.
Forced to carry the cross of Jesus, Simon of Cyrene, a little
known biblical figure, reluctantly yields to his task. At the same
time, Simon struggles with personal loss and a fiery desire for
revenge. In Simon's story, the vulnerability of our own journeys is
laid bare as we cross paths with a simple wooden cross and a
redemptive twist of fate.
In Simon's Crossing, this ordinary man, from Cyrene, steps
boldly out of the pages of the Bible. He senses that his own life
depends on the Nazarene staggering just ahead of him. Persuaded by
sacrificial love, we too discover what it is like to cross over
into the imaginal power of a story well-told, where salvation lies
close at hand. Simon's story compels us to carry on as well.
