Episode 35: Nerds of the Sacred Heart with Fr. John Eckert

Catholic Nerds

It's a good ol' fashioned nerd-out about (and with) the Sacred Heart of Jesus! AND just in time for the Feast of the Sacred Heart! AND with a priest from Sacred Heart parish who just made a Sacred Heart video series. Yo Nerd, I heard you like the Sacred Heart, so we got the Sacred Heart from Sacred Heart parish to talk about the Sacred Heart after making a video on the Sacred Heart to listen to on the Feast of the Sacred Heart!

Fr. John Eckert has a new series, The Sacred Heart, from The Catholic Company™. This series is "designed to help individuals dive deeper in their faith, through coming to know the Sacred Heart of Jesus."

Fr. Eckert and his series go over all the following:

• The true story behind the Sacred Heart devotion
• The saints who preached a Sacred Heart devotion before St. Margaret Mary
• The exact promises Jesus made to those who practice this devotion
• Ways to devote yourself to the Sacred Heart
• Where the Sacred Heart devotion is hidden in the Gospels, including a deep dive in Jesus' Farewell Discourse in John's Gospel!
• PLUS, how to celebrate the Feasts of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary!
• AND, lots on St. Margaret Mary Alacoque and Jesus' promises for the First Friday Mass devotion
