In this 350th Anniversary Year of the Apparitions of the Sacred Heart to St Margaret-Mary Alacoque this new book sets out, in nine chapters, to shed light on the fount of that love which is the essence of God. The heart offers a world-wide image which speaks to all but the book also looks at how it can be easily corrupted and how we can address that.
Chapters include:
- The Heart of Jesus as an image of God’s love
- Mary’s heart – wonder and joy at the presence of the divine
- The call of the heart – intimacy and vocation
- Change of heart - what conversion means
- Heartfelt – the spirituality of compassion
- Lonely hearts – suffering and emptiness
- The oratory of the heart – the place of prayer and encounter
- The heart of the Eucharist – sacraments and spirituality
- The Cosmic Heart – creation’s divinity
'Heart of my own Heart' is a beautifully attentive reminder that God's name is Love, and that Jesus is God's love made manifest to us, and to our hearts. This book recapitulates the Christian life as one of honest pilgrimage, of seeking the Love which in Jesus sought and found us. '
