Book excerpt: Treasure in Clay provides a lifetime’s worth of wisdom from one of the most beloved and influential figures in twentieth-century Catholicism. Completed shortly before his death in 1979, Treasure in Clay is the autobiography of Fulton J. Sheen, the preeminent teacher, preacher, and pastor of American Catholicism. Called “the Great Communicator” by Billy Graham and “a prophet of the times” by Pope Pius XII, Sheen was the voice of American Catholicism for nearly fifty years. In addition to his prolific writings, Sheen dominated the airwaves, first in radio, and later television, with his signature program “Life is Worth Living,” drawing an average of 30 million viewers a week in the 1950s. Sheen had the ears of everyone from presidents to the common men, women, and children in the pews, and his uplifting message of faith, hope, and love shaped generations of Catholics. Here in Sheen’s own words are reflections from his childhood, his years in seminary, his academic career, his media stardom, his pastoral work, his extensive travels, and much more. Readers already familiar with Sheen and as well as those coming to him for the first time will find a fascinating glimpse into the Catholic world Sheen inhabited, and will find inspiration in Sheen’s heartfelt recollections. Treasure in Clay is a classic book and a lasting testament to a life that was worth living.

This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fulton J. Sheen, Norman Vincent Peale, and Billy Graham were America’s most popular religious leaders during the mid-twentieth century period known as the golden years of the Age of Extremes. It was part of an era that encompassed polemic contrasts of good and evil on the world stage in political philosophies and international relations. The 1950s and early 1960s, in particular, were years of high anxiety, competing ideologies, and hero/villain mania in America. Sheen was the voice of reason who spoke against those conflicting ideologies which were hostile to religious faith and democracy; Peale preached the gospel of reassurance, self-assurance, and success despite ominous global threats; and Graham was the heroic model of faith whose message of conversion provided Americans an identity and direction opposite to atheistic communism. This study looks at how and why their rhetorical leadership, both separately and together, contributed to the climate of an extreme era and influenced a national religious revival.

Sheen and published by Mockingbird Press. This book was released on 2021-12-22 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This three-book volume by Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen includes Preface to Religion (1946), The Life of Christ (1958), and The Priest is Not His Own (1963). These three works seek to educate both the new follower of Christ and the lifelong devotee on their place in the world and their responsibilities to God and their fellow human beings. Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen (b. 1895 - d. 1979) was a Catholic priest, writer, and presenter of several radio and television programs throughout the mid-20th century. This highly educated man of faith held two bachelor's degrees, a master's degree, a PhD in philosophy, and a Doctor of Sacred Theology. With such a thorough background in faith and philosophy, Archbishop Sheen was uniquely qualified to be an educator, both in universities and to the general public. To this end, he spent many years teaching at the Catholic University of America. He also shared what he'd learned with millions of Americans through his radio program, The Catholic Hour, and later through the popular television program, Life is Worth Living. He also wrote prolifically, sharing many books and articles with the world. Three of those books are included in this collection. Preface to Religion could be considered an introductory work, intended to guide those on the periphery of religion closer to God. The Life of Christ explores the life, temptations, Passion, death, and resurrection of Christ-the founder of the Catholic Church. And The Priest is Not His Own is a unique work for the priest or seminary student to help them be a better shepherd and closer adherent to the example set by Jesus Christ. While Preface and Priest were written for different audiences, when taken together with The Life of Christ they illustrate the depth of a life of faith. From the exploration of human nature and the causes of discontent to the responsibilities of the priest who has devoted his life to the Church, these three books help to illustrate the challenges of life as both a new convert and as a firm believer. Preface to Religion is a work of both theology and philosophy. Beginning with the reasons for man's discontent, Archbishop Sheen proves to the reader that their unhappiness and lack of fulfillment is not because of what they have in life. For no material possession, no relationship, no achievement can ever give them the satisfaction they desire. The instinct to reach for something greater proves that there is more. For, as Archbishop Sheen writes, "...would there be in you a craving for unending life, perfect truth, and ecstatic love unless Perfect Life and Truth and Love existed?" The Life of Christ is one of Archbishop Sheen's best-loved works. Without a thorough understanding of Christ's life-His birth, actions on Earth, trials and tribulations, and ultimate sacrifice-one cannot hope to emulate His example and be a true child of God. The Priest is Not His Own is written for the educated theologian who is well acquainted with scripture and the life and death of Christ. But it is unique in its call to priests to emulate Christ, not only His preaching and counseling but in his victimhood. Through a spirit of sacrifice in word and deed, the priest becomes closer to Christ and is better able to lead his flock. The work also includes guidance to help the priest better communicate with and instruct his followers. When read together by the layperson, these three books can help the reader to understand the role of both the leader and the follower, and get a clearer sense of where man and priest fit into God's greater plan.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Named Best Major Publication by Concordia Historical Institute During the anxiety-laden period from the Great Depression through World War II to the Cold War, Americans found a welcome escape in the new medium of radio. Throughout radio's "Golden Age," religious broadcasting in particular contributed significantly to American culture. Yet its historic role often has been overlooked. In Ministers of a New Medium, Kirk D. Farney explores the work of two groundbreaking leaders in religious broadcasting: Fulton J. Sheen and Walter A. Maier. These clergymen and professors—one a Catholic priest, the other a Lutheran minister—each led the way in combining substantive theology and emerging technology to spread the gospel over the airwaves. Through weekly nationwide broadcasts, Maier's The Lutheran Hour and Sheen's Catholic Hour attracted listeners across a spectrum of denominational and religious affiliations, establishing their hosts—and Christian radio itself—as cultural and religious forces to be reckoned with. Farney examines how Sheen and Maier used their exceptional erudition, their sensitivity to the times, their powerful communication skills, and their unwavering Christian conviction, all for the purpose of calling the souls of listeners and the soul of a nation to repentance and godliness. Their combination of talents also brought their respective denominations, Roman Catholicism and Missouri Synod Lutheranism, from the periphery of the American religious landscape to a much greater level of recognition and acceptance. With careful attention to both the theological content and the cultural influence of these masters of a new medium, Farney's study sheds new light on the history of media and Christianity in the United States.
