For Catholics seeking modern spiritual relevance

Revitalises devotion amidst ecological concerns

You will discover a deeper connection to creation

This book reinterprets the Sacred Heart for today's ecological challenges.

Traditional forms of devotion to the Sacred Heart, also known as the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have waned among Catholics in recent decades. That's understandable, writes theologian and Sacred Heart Religious, Mary Frohlich. In this book, she seeks to reinterpret a traditional devotion, making it more relevant than ever, and central to Christian spirituality in the 21st century. Facing our impending ecological disaster, Frohlich sets out to discover the Heart of God as truly the heart of all creation. Drawing upon recent theologies that have embraced the "new animism" that regards every being (including humans) as a node in webs of living relationality, this book chooses twelve themes relevant to the concerns and needs of today's world and explores what story of the Heart of God may be told in relation to each one.
