The Arma Christi (“weapons of Christ”) are a common theme in sacred art. Often, angels are depicted holding the various Arma Christi, such as the nails, the crown of thorns, even the dice the soldiers used to cast lots for Jesus’s garments. In this short self-guided Lenten retreat, Fr Philip Caldwell offers meditations on these implements of Christ’s Passion and considers the great mystery in which the tools used to wound Our Lord became His weapons in conquering sin and death and winning for us Salvation.
