Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus helps us focus on the passion and death of Christ, and thus on his great love for us. Novena to the Sacred Heart of Jesus contains nine meditations and prayers written by St. Alphonsus Liguori that honor this devotion. It is includes includes an introduction to the devotion as well as a closing prayer, and is a careful translation of St. Alphonsus’ work.
Because of St. Alphonsus’s great love for Jesus Christ, he was especially fond of this novena to the Sacred Heart. He wrote, “Devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus is an exercise of love toward our loving Savior. Therefore, the principal object of this devotion, the spiritual object of this devotion, is the love with which the heart of Jesus is inflamed toward all.”

Saint Alphonsus Liguori (b. 27 Sept. 1696, d. 1 Oct. 1787) is best known for his Moral Theology writings. Alphonsus founded the Redemptorist Congregation. He made great pastoral reforms in the pulpit and confessional, replacing the pompous oratory of the time with simplicity. For nearly ninety years he had been a model of holiness, prayer, and mortification. Alphonsus fought against Jansenism, which later became condemned as heretical. He spent twenty-six years on the road preaching in the Kingdom of Naples. Saint Alphonsus was made bishop of Palermo at age 66. His life was filled with illness, eight times, he was administered the sacrament of dying. He was declared "Venerable", 4 May, 1796; was beatified in 1816, and canonized in 1839. In 1871, was declared a Doctor of the Church by Pope Pius IX
