Description
xTraditional forms of devotion to the Sacred Heart, also known as the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have waned among Catholics in recent decades. Here, Mary Frohlich, a sister of the Sacred Heart, seeks to reinterpret this traditional devotion as central to Christian spirituality in the 21st century. Facing our impending ecological disaster she 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.
