In this episode, we explore the forgotten mysticism of the Sacred Heart—from St. Augustine and the restless heart, to medieval devotion to Christ's wounds, to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque and the Sacred Heart revelations. Along the way, we'll look at how the Sacred Heart challenges a cold, purely intellectual faith and calls us into a deeper life of love, mercy, and transformation. The Sacred Heart is more than a devotion. It is a vision of the Christian life itself.
