I sent this video to my brother a protestant pastor yesterday.
Thanks for posting.

We watched the Passion last nite on DVD. In this movie 3 years ago, I made my decision to return to the Church. It was as if Christ said to me, "I did this for you, now you can follow me wherever I go."
God bless

This movie was also a "Catholic tug" on my husband's heart. This is after all, the "Stations of the Cross" and a Catholic movie, made by a Catholic and Rich was very moved. I didn't know at the time how much it affected him until he told me a year later after our conversion as husband and wife to full communion with the CC.

Veronica's veil was one scene that struck him so profoundly, whereas I didn't even "see" that, not having any recollection of Stations of the Cross, which I'd never even done or walked before that I can recall. I don't even remember any Catholics around me then talking about the Stations, however, my ears were only listening to and for "Jesus Music" loud and rockin'...and NOT to the voice of Jesus' Church.
