Endorsement
‘Sometimes a book comes unhyped and unheralded and takes me by storm, and such is the case with The Cross He Bore by Frederick Leahy. Whenever I read it, and I have read it again and again, I am often compelled to stop and worship, to stop and meditate, or to stop and dry my eyes, thanking Christ for His immeasurable sacrifice. This little book is a true treasure.’ — TIM CHALLIES
Book Description
Frederick Leahy spent a lifetime in the ministry of the Word. In these pages, preacher, pastor and theologian come together in a happy unity. No words are wasted. There is nothing of the frothy and insubstantial. Here is satisfying truth, painstakingly quarried and crafted for the needs of God’s people. A judicious selection of gems from the writings of others provides further enrichment and stimulus to thought.

Jim Black –
A great short book that focuses on the sacrifice of Christ. Leahy gives insights that I have not heard before.
The line that touched my heart the most was “Lord, forgive us for the times we have read about Gethsemane with dry eyes.” This book cannot be read with dry eyes.
Highly recommended
Timothy Campbell –
A wonderful book on the sufferings of Christ. I’ve bought about 6 copies and have given them all out to friends.
Benjamin Hegan –
The hype around this book is real. It is a classic. It is even better that it was authored by a man who was from the same part of the world as I and who ministered in a denomination very theologically close with my own. A tremendous survey of our Lord’s travails at and on the way to Calvary. I devoured it in one sitting. I will read it again slowly another time. As you read you get a real sense of the agonies of Calvary and at times it moves you to worship. A lot of quotes are scattered throughout, which helps. A tremendous book. Highly recommended!
