In this episode, Bishop Donald Hying is joined by Matt Regner, a parishioner and lay leader in the Diocese of Madison, for a conversation on the family enthronement of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Together, they discuss what the enthronement is, how a family can prepare for and celebrate it in the home, and the spiritual fruits that come from placing the Sacred Heart of Jesus at the center of family life.

In this episode of Things Visible and Invisible, Bishop Donald Hying continues the series on the Sacred Heart of Jesus by exploring the visions given to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque. While other saints knew and loved the Sacred Heart, it is St. Margaret Mary's 17th-century experience that has shaped this devotion for the past five centuries, revealing so clearly the love of God poured out in Christ. Bishop Hying reflects on each of the 12 promises Jesus made to those who hold a true devotion to his Sacred Heart – extraordinary assurances of grace, mercy, and peace that invite every believer to consecrate themselves to his Heart, or to renew a consecration already made.

Welcome to Things Visible and Invisible, a new podcast with Bishop Donald Hying of the Diocese of Madison exploring life, faith, current events, culture, and history, all in relation to Jesus Christ and his Church. In this opening episode, Bishop Hying reflects on the wonder of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the historic consecration of the United States to the Sacred Heart this June. On June 11, in commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. bishops will consecrate the United States to the Sacred Heart of Jesus – a first in the history of the Church in this country. Bishop Hying unfolds why the heart of Christ, crowned with thorns and afire with love, becomes a symbol of our deepest humanity and the totality of the Good News.
