Description
Dilexit Nos, the 2024 Encyclical from Pope Francis, offers an inspiring reflection on the Sacred Heart of Jesus and how this familiar image helps us reflect on how human love and divine love live as one in the person of Jesus Christ. The image of the Sacred Heart of Jesus connects time and eternity, human and divine, yesterday, today and tomorrow.
Anna Burke calls us back to the Sacred Heart for a second look. In fifteen reflections on the many aspects of the heart – cosmic, authentic, courageous, forgiving, renewing – she encourages us to return and find what is new in every century, old in every history book and universal in every language: the love of God.
With suggested scripture readings, reference to Dilexit Nos and points for reflection, The Living Image is the perfect guide to reconnecting with the Sacred Heart. Through the Sacred Heart, you can ground your life in what Pope Francis has called ‘the unifying principle of all reality’.
