Author: Fr. Bernard Hring, CSsR

Has the world lost its heart? Have we lost our center, our inmost being?

The heart has always been a symbol used to express emotion, hurt, rejection, human understanding, and, above all, love. The Church, in its devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, wants to waken us to a God who has hungered and suffered, known joy and sorrowa God with heart. The thirty beautiful heart-centered meditations in this book dramatically illustrate our need to turn to the heart of Jesus as a way of overcoming modern disregard for life, justice, and peace.

Bernard Hring shows us that true veneration of the Sacred Heart is more than a pious practice. It is a devotion deeply rooted in Scripture and tradition. This devotion is needed today to bring us to the deep, overflowing love of the heart of Jesusthe hope of reparation and the source of redemption for our world.
