Origin/meaning
As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop.
The upper part of the personal side shows the lion of St. Mark, representing the middle name of the bishop. The fleur-de-lys in the middle part is the symbol for St. Joseph, the first patron of the bishop. St. Joseph is also the patron saint of the Diocese of Nashville and the Archdiocese of Louisville, where the bishop grew up.
The Jerusalem Cross is taken from a British Spalding family arms and thus symbolises the family name of the bishop.
