Passion of Jesus 2.3

Objective of the app The main purpose of the app is to inspire individuals to cultivate a deep devotion to Jesus Christ in His Passion. It aims to encourage users to contemplate and reflect on each aspect of the Passion, regardless of their location or activity, allowing them to pause and focus on our Lord, enabling this profound, life-altering truth to enlighten, liberate, redeem, and bear spiritual fruit. This application facilitates the convergence of time and eternity, resulting in the transformative influence of Christ Crucified permeating our daily lives.

Features of the app:

• Believers can transition between different Passion stages by choosing the default 24-hour mode, selecting custom modes (8 hours, 1 hour, or 30 minutes), or navigating manually through swiping.
• Users can easily navigate to specific Passion stages by touching the screen and using the slider.
• Option to resize images with a toggle function.
• Listen to content (Passion 24/7 and Passion Meditations) in a natural voice.
• Adjust font size and scroll speed in the 'Settings' section.
• Set daily reminder times for Way of the Cross, Daily Prayer to Jesus Crucified, Passion Prayers, and Passion Meditations.

About the app: The events are presented in chronological order as depicted in Scripture and Sacred Tradition. The content is predominantly sourced from the collective works of Saint Alphonsus de Liguori (excluding Way of the Cross-Through Mary's Eyes). While traditionally associated with Lenten practices, Saints strongly recommend making this devotion a part of daily spiritual life.

This chronological progression spans a full 24 hours and is designed to be accessible to believers worldwide on a 24/7 basis, providing a means of commemorating and accompanying Jesus during His final twenty-four hours on earth. The Passion timeline beckons believers throughout the day at regular intervals to meditate on Christ's suffering, seek His grace and strength. Each meditation synchronizes with the respective passion image based on the user’s local time. Alongside each image are reflections, responses, and suggested prayer intentions. Additionally, users are encouraged to pray for personal intentions and communal unity within the global body of Christ.

The 24-hour schedule serves as the default passion mode. To accommodate user convenience and flexibility, the passion timeline is also available in three alternative modes: 8 hours, 1 hour, and 30 minutes. Users can customize the starting time based on their schedules for these modes. Once a customized cycle is completed, the app reverts back to the default 24-hour mode.

For instance, if a user has 30 minutes available for prayerful reflection on our Lord's Passion, they can select the 30-minute mode and choose a start time accordingly. The entire Passion cycle will then conclude within approximately 30 minutes. The app includes Stations of the Cross, favored Passion prayers, Lenten/Easter Festival reflections, Daily Prayer to Jesus Crucified, and Daily Passion Meditations.
