The Sacred Heart of Jesus, by noted nineteenth-century French prelate Mgr. Louis Gaston de Ségur, is a series of over thirty lessons and meditations designed to inspire the pious reader with a true and ardent devotion to the Sacred Heart. The book notably draws from Our Lord's revelations to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque and the writings of St. John Eudes.In the words of Mgr. de Ségur, "The purpose of this little work is to popularize the knowledge and therefore the love and worship of the Most Adorable and Most Sacred Heart of Our Lord Jesus Christ.... If I have the happiness of obtaining my goal, this little book can be of great service to those thousands of holy priests, zealous missionaries, fervent religious, and good and pious mothers of families seeking through all means to make truly known, served, and loved around them the God of their heart and the Heart of their God.... Our Lord having presented His Heart to be the refuge of souls in the trials of the last times, this work seems to me to enter His merciful designs." Included in the front of the book is an apostolic letter from His Holiness Pope Pius IX commending Mgr. de Ségur for his zeal in producing this edifying work.

Sister Mary Martha Chambon (1841-1907) was a religious of the Visitation Order in Chambéry, France, to whom Jesus Christ revealed the powerful treasures of devotion to His Sacred Wounds. It was to her that Our Lord taught two prayers invoking the Holy Wounds which the Catholic Church subsequently approved for recitation by the faithful. Although Sister Mary Martha's extraordinary gifts of grace were unknown, while alive, to the outside world, and even to most of the sisters within her community, this victim soul's life was immersed in the supernatural: continuous apparitions and messages from Jesus, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the Saints of Heaven; communications with the Holy Souls in Purgatory; the bearing of the stigmata; feeding only on the Holy Eucharist for years at a time; attacks from the devil; miraculous answers to prayer; infused knowledge of hidden and far-off events; and prophecies which arguably pertain to the unprecedented crisis we are witnessing in the Church today.In obedience to the priests serving as spiritual directors to the Visitation of Chambéry, and in accordance with the express wishes of Our Lord Himself, the Mother Superiors of the illiterate Sister Mary Martha diligently wrote down the divine messages relayed to their daughter and the miraculous happenings surrounding her person. The details they compiled form the basis for this book and aim to fulfill the following words Jesus spoke to Sister Mary Martha: "Your path is to make Me known and loved, especially in the future."
