A long time ago during my reversion to the Catholic Faith I started seeking out books on the Sacred Heart Devotion since I had known little about it and my knowledge was superficial. In a bookstore in Utica or Syracuse, NY I chanced upon this book, which is billed as the original manual on the Devotion and the origin of much of what it involves.

“It is an excellent book, a classic on the Devotion and it far exceeds any other book I know of on the history, practice, means and reasons to do it. Numerous prayers and meditations are in it, including some written by St. Margaret Mary Alacoque (the mystic who recieved the Devotion from Our Lord Himself.) It in you’ll find everything you need to know to practice the Devotion. It’s a wonderful book to take to Eucharistic Adoration. This should be on every sober Catholic’s bookshelf. All of the Promises that Our Lord made to St. Margaret Mary to those who practice the Devotion are included, and detailed. And there are more than the Twelve usually listed in prayer books.” – Source: Sacred Heart Solemnity

The book is available through TAN Books.

There are other books on the Sacred Heart, these will be reviewed over the year.

I have a new book! "The Sober Catholic Way" is a handbook on how anyone can live a sober life, drawn from over 17 years of SoberCatholic posts! It's out now on "Amazon," "Apple Books," "B&N" and and others!"!

My two other books are still available! "The Stations of the Cross for Alcoholics" and "The Recovery Rosary: Reflections for Alcoholics and Addicts" (Thank you!!)
