Stations of the Cross

This podcast serves as an audio guide for walking and meditating on the 14 Stations of the Cross. It is designed for use in the Prayer Garden at First Baptist Church in downtown Athens, GA. The Garden is open on MAUNDY THURSDAY or GOOD FRIDAY (March 28 & 29, 2024)through the day. The podcast is timed so that once it is started, a person can allow it to play continuously being guided from station to station with time for silence and meditation at each station. A bell tone will sound, followed by a prompt indicating it is time to move to the next station. 

 

Option

While it is designed to be used when physically walking a path of the 14 stations, this podcast can be adapted for use in other settings. One can simply find a quite place, inside or outside, and listen to the prayers, identified stations, and prompts for reflection.
