THE LOVE OF CHRIST REVEALED THROUGH HIS SACRED HEART

Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus calls the faithful to contemplate the immeasurable love of Christ-and to answer that love with faith, gratitude, reparation, and consecration.

In this distinctive spiritual work, Fr. Marin de Boylesve, S.J. (1813-1892) leads readers beyond a simple introduction to the devotion. Drawing upon Scripture and Catholic teaching, he reveals the Heart of Jesus throughout the mysteries of the Gospel, from the Incarnation and hidden life of Christ to His Passion, the Cross, and the lance that pierced His side.

Fr. de Boylesve then explores the profound relationship between the Sacred Heart and the three Persons of the Blessed Trinity. His meditations show how the petitions of the Our Father, the sacraments of the Church, and the seven gifts of the Holy Ghost may all be understood in the light of Christ's divine love.

Accessible yet rich in spiritual insight, this book is suitable for personal meditation, Eucharistic devotion, preparation for the First Fridays, and anyone wishing to deepen their knowledge and love of the Sacred Heart.
