Can you touch the very steps Christ took to His condemnation?

For centuries, a staggering mystery has resided in the heart of Rome: the Scala Santa, the twenty-eight marble steps believed to have been taken directly from Pontius Pilate's Praetorium in Jerusalem. This is not merely an architectural relic; it is a physical testament to the Passion, sanctified by the very footprints of our Lord and, according to ancient tradition, stained by drops of His sacred blood. This new volume, The Passion's Ascent, plunges into the profound, tumultuous, and often miraculous history of this site, revealing how a staircase from the Holy Land became the ultimate destination for the devout seeking grace and merit in the Eternal City.
