God's Wounds: The Remarkable Truth of Those Who Bore the Signs of Christ's Passion
- Fascinating study of the miracle of the stigmata
- Comprehensive, honest & faithful exploration
- Evaluation of historical & medical evidence
- Well-known and lesser known cases
- Compelling read for Catholics
Throughout the long, fascinating, and sometimes mysterious history of supernatural phenomena in the Catholic Church, few are as startling—or as spiritually profound—as the stigmata: the miraculous appearance of Christ’s wounds on the bodies of ordinary believers.
For centuries, these signs of Jesus’s Passion have stirred deep devotion, curiosity, and controversy. Are they authentic or fabricated? What evidence supports them? And if they are real, why would God permit such a phenomenon?
In God’s Wounds, author John Clark delivers one of the most comprehensive, honest, and faithful explorations of the stigmata ever written. Steering clear of both cynicism and naïveté, Clark approaches the subject with respect and clarity, evaluating the evidence—both historical and medical—with reason and reverence. He examines well-known stigmatists like St. Francis of Assisi and Padre Pio, as well as lesser-known cases, comparing their stories with Church teaching, science, and common sense.
Part investigative history, part apologetic for the miraculous, and part spiritual meditation, God’s Wounds offers a rare window into the extraordinary ways God has chosen to communicate the suffering of Christ. It’s a compelling read for those seeking to understand the miraculous—and to grow in devotion to the One who bore the wounds of our salvation.
