Below are links to audio files of as much as I can find from Archbishop Fulton Sheen, the ardent lover of God, of Our Lord Jesus Christ, of Our Lady, and of Holy Church. His talks cover a huge range of topics, from The Holy Mass to prayer to psychology to politics to economics to…just about everything. A sincere and truly credible source and resource, and, as certain as we can be, a great, great saint.
“Haters” might try to criticize him by saying he is “theatrical” or whatever else, but we live in days where real preaching is virtually dead,and thus unknown. Preaching, and preaching Christ Jesus truly, requires grace, deep prayer, obedience to The Word of God, true love of Our Lord, and suffering. Seminary formation today focuses ultimately on a mere “don’t rock the boat” mentality, under the control of our politician bishops.
So, here is an authentic and credible preacher and teacher of Jesus Christ, and of the many and deep ways He touches our lives today.
