Items related to Seven Last Words
The Seven Words from the Cross are the focus of Christian meditation through the ages. Set to music by Haydn, they epitomise the depth of Jesus's human expereience and thus speak most profoundly to the human condition.
Each meditation is illustrated with a picture of Christ on the Cross. Many are old masters;some more modern. The object is to lead the reader deeply into prayer and contemplation.
But there is nothing fusty about Radcliffe's text. Whatever he writes is a breath of fresh air and these meditations are modern and contemporary in their reference. There are also many autobiographical touches which make these meditations more personal.
This is perfect Lent reading by a spiritual master and one of the few Christian prophets in our time.

He lives in Oxford but spends much of his year giving retreats, lectures and conference key-note addresses in the UK and overseas.
Review:
“In Seven Last Words, Timothy Radcliffe OP approaches Calvary by way of a thought-filled meander through intersections of memory and documented quotations, and then provides two afterwords.” –Review for Religious, 64.2, 2005 (Review For Religious)
