Feast of the Sacred Heart
The Feast of the Sacred Heart is upon us. After the weekly Holy Hour and the monthly First Friday, this is the third and annual element of a Sacred Triad, called for by Our Lord in Paray-le-Monial, France.
Here is how in the late seventeenth century, Saint Claude de la Columbiere related the origins [...]
On Saint Claude de la Colombiere
By Joseph A. Keller
Introductory Remarks: From the late nineteenth century, I have found this biography and tribute to Saint Claude de la Columbiere by a British priest, Joseph A. Keller. It can be found in his book The Sacred Heart. I should like to add that it was by the relics of Saint [...]

A Tridentine Preview
A lot of work is presently going into a new aspect of this website, which I hope will soon debut under the name of Tridentine Archive.
The Archive among other things, will be representing to the twenty-first century certain older out-of-copyright texts, which deal not only with the Sacred Heart, but also the entire Tridentine period [...]

King of Hearts
Cor Jesu, Rex et Centrum omnium cordium
(Heart of Jesus, King and Centre of all hearts -
From the Litany of the Sacred Heart).
It is frequently asserted in certain Catholic Traditionalist circles that the religion of the so-called “Spirit of Vatican II” is a new religion, so different to what preceded it, that it must be considered [...]

Every Secret Misery and Silent Agony
Bursting:
I have mentioned at this site before Paray-le-Monial, where His Most Sacred Heart once was seen, blazing like the sun. And I have mentioned before, how while bearing heavy suffering, how held and bathed I felt in the love of that Most Sacred Heart, which still can be felt beating there … beating at Paray-le-Monial in France.
And there, there I had experiences [...]
Book Review: Heart of the Redeemer by Timothy T. O’ Donnell
THE comprehensive book in English on the Sacred Heart Devotion. Piously beautiful and academically rich at the same time.
Valentin Tomberg on “A Special Intervention from Heaven …”
Dear Friends, known and unknown,
I continue to feel need for a time of contemplation before resuming this weblog “properly”. In the meantime, I expect I will be posting another article and further reviews, including possibly reviews of Valentin Tomberg’s Degeneration and Regeneration of Jurisprudence and Foundations of International Law as Humanity’s Law - whose towering moral [...]

One of Us
Below is an extract from my book in preparation: Cor Jesu Sacratissimum. I am still contemplating the direction this weblog should take and it may be that other areas of this site continue to be the most frequently updated – i.e. Kim’s weblog, the reviews and I hope soon the articles.
One of us drives a Porsche.

His Heart, O So Tender, So Pierced
One Thursday night, when I was praying the Holy Hour, I began to feel a tender quality in my heart.
I heard the continuous cry of a young dog, outside in the snowy cold night. That cry seemed to go straight into the tenderness in my heart. I wondered as I prayed, if I was experiencing [...]
Cor Jesu, láncea perforátum
Welcome to my weblog and thank you for coming.
There are many themes and aspects to the faith, I want to explore here, centred around the mysteries of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, Our Lady and Her Rosary, Holy Mass, Holy Mother Church and far more.
First of all, I will present something I wrote about the [...]
A Very Personal and Haphazard Beginning …
Some day, maybe the story can be told. The whole crazy story … or apparently crazy. For now, suffice it to say that this web project is being started in personally very difficult circumstances. Circumstances where my wife Kim and I hardly have a real home, let alone a home with decent web access.
Nonetheless with [...]
