I have a friend who turned me onto Bishop Sheen recently. I watch his stuff on youtube.

Thanks for the post. Good to see you! 🙂
 
His books are all very good too.

His “Life of Christ” can be opened to any chapter and bless you.

His “Keeping the Faith” Audio series is at once profound and simple.

You can enjoy his many “Life is Worth Living” TV programs so many years later - and they still have relevance.

In a homily, 30 years after his death, Father Andrew Small had this to say about Archbishop Sheen:

“Fulton J. Sheen wanted to get to heaven.

Fulton J. Sheen wanted to bring all of us with him.

Fulton J. Sheen wanted to be a saint.

Fulton J. Sheen wanted us to be saints, too.

His pivotal insight, central to revelation, was that Jesus Christ was the way to heaven, the truth about how to get there, the life we hope to share for all eternity.”

Fr. Small was one of Archbishop Sheen’s successors as President of the National Society for the Propagation of the Faith.

“As head of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith from 1950 to 1966, the Venerable Fulton Sheen was heroic in spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ …" Small added.

"… Far and wide – from Peoria to Pretoria; New York to New Delhi. He teaches us still that the Church is missionary by her very nature.”
