"Divine Mercy, The Heart of The Gospel" is a compilation of essays on the theology of Divine Mercy. The essays were given at the first scholarly symposium sponsored by the John Paul II Institute of Divine Mercy, held in January of 1999. The collection of essays exhibits the excellent work being done in North America on the theology of Divine Mercy as revealed in Sacred Scripture, the Church's Tradition and the writings of Saint Maria Faustina Kowalska, the "Great Apostle of Divine Mercy" in our times.
