Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen - A Prophet for Our Times
Fr. Andrew Apostoli

Fondly remembered by millions for his pioneering work in Catholic broadcasting, Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen was one of the best-loved and most influential preachers of the 20th century. Through his faith, vision and charming wit, the saintly Archbishop touched millions of hearts and souls through his national radio show The Catholic Hour and his live network television broadcast, Life is Worth Living, which became one of the most popular shows of its day.

Voice of the Church

Originally broadcast on EWTN, and now on four-CDs (or audiocassettes) from St. Joseph Communications, Fr. Andrew Apostoli of the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal hosts Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen: A Prophet for Our Time. A "spiritual son" of Bishop Sheen, Fr Apostoli's fascinating series chronicles the life and career of the man who was the virtual voice of the Catholic Church in the U.S, for thirty years.

Ordained to the priesthood by the beloved prelate in 1967, Fr. Apostoli offers personal stories and insights that combine to create an intimate portrait of Fulton Sheen as a great moral leader, a courageous example and inspiration for our priests and bishops - a strong and saintly voice for our times. As Bishop Sheen himself would say, "we need a voice that's right when everyone else is wrong."

Simplicity and Clarity

Voted one of the top four most influential Catholics of the 20th century, in this presentation you'll rediscover the simplicity and clarity of Sheen's preaching, teaching, and philosophy of life from many personal testimonies of his influence on the lives of others, and from actual recordings of the beloved prelate himself. What emerges is a portrait of a man whose dedication to God helped him to rise from humble beginnings to become one of the best educated and the best loved Catholic prelates of his generation, while never losing sight of the ultimate goal of bringing souls to Christ.

You'll be spiritually moved and have your faith enriched in new ways by the heroic example of Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen revealed in the shared memories and enlightening anecdotes of those who knew and loved him. Scholar, apologist, educator, philosopher and mass communicator, the cause for Fulton Sheen's canonization was officially opened on September 14, 2002.
