As child my mother and I watched Bishop Fulton Sheen. We were not Catholics. I am now a convert . In retirement, I have a Ministry -Grief Support Group. The mustard seed was planted in me from Bishop Sheen.

I'm thankful to remember this Saint. My grandparents came to Rochester NY,from Ireland. Brought up strictly Irish Catholic. My uncle was a priest,along with many other things. Our family loved this man of cloth. I still look to him for guidance 🙏☘️🇮🇪

Bishop Fulton Sheen pray for our beloved Church

When I was small, my mother and I used watch Bishop Sheen on tv. He always had a chalkboard to write on. Then he would walk away while talking. When he came back to the chalkboard, it had been erased. I was mystified as a child. Who erased the board? “His guardian angel” my mother would say! I loved the thought. 💕

Bishop Fulton Sheen pray for us. .....

While I'm not a Roman Catholic- I, as a Born Again Christian, think Fr. Sheen was one of the truly great 20th century Christians. A real, genuine , holy, Christian man. I'd rank him along with some of the other greats- C.S. Lewis, Billy Graham, A.W. Tozer, Martyn Lloyd Jones, and a few others. I think I was first made aware of Bishop Sheen around 2002 when I was homeless and living in a motel room. Flipping through the channels on TV I came across the local Christian channel and an episode from Bishop Sheen's TV show was on. I was absolutely captivated. He was so full of joy and conviction and brimming with the Holy Spirit. I have since downloaded hundreds of hours of his sermons and speeches and listen to them routinely on my iPhone. I even downloaded his Catholic catechism series. What amazes me about him is the sharpness of his mind. Even late into his life. He could speak at length about our Blessed Lord without much reliance on notes. Really quite stunning. There's not a doubt in my mind Bishop Sheen is in heaven. As our Lord has said to him- 'Well done thou good and faithful servant'.

Absolute love the man. Arch Bishop Fulton Sheen is a Saint!

We NEED another venerable Fulton Sheen soon. God Bless

The most ardent Protestants I have ever known always listened to Archbishop Sheen's TV and radio shows. Many of those ardent Catholics are now Catholics. Even Billy Graham called Bishop Sheen the greatest communicator of the 20th Century.

I fell asleep during adoration this past Sunday and I couldn't stop thinking "couldst thou not watch one hour" all the way home. It's nice to know the great Fulton Sheen had the same experience. I don't intend to do it again, though.

Archbishop Sheen was one of the early seeds in my catholic faith. I owe him prayer and love for staying in the back of my mind. He never failed me in knowledge, holiness and kindness. I’ll always be grateful for sharing his gifts with the church

Such an inspiring spiritual practice, I'm starting out with 20 minutes and work my way up to one hour. I enjoy watching Bishop Sheen's programs on KZfaq. I've learned a lot. Thanks to everyone including Bishop Barron who bring these videos to us.

Glad to see this, always will love Sheen.

Bishop Fulton Sheen was a beautiful gift to all of us..and to the church! Bishop Sheen, Pray for us!

I am a longtime resident of the Peoria Diocese, and I LOVE our Cathedral, especially after recent renovations. I look forward to seeing the full episode on Venerable Fulton J Sheen!

Beautiful ❤️ praise God bless His Holy Name forever 🙏 🙌 ❤️

I'm so grateful to Fulton Sheen who I discovered on EWTN.

Such an amazing man. I really look up to him. He's part of the reason I came back to the Church.

I believe these times are calling for the Devotion to the Blessed Sacrament.

I love Bishop Sheen. He and St Agustin are my favorite Bishops.

Prayers and study...thank you Lord for always inspiring many of us Catholics to have a intimate relationship with you.

Archbishop Sheen taught by prayer more than books. I remember @ the end of his life St. Thomas Aquinas remarked that all he had written was like straw. We need that straw to burn in our hearts even though we might not even be worthy to receive the scraps from the Master's table.

Thank you Bishop Barron. I've always been very fond of Bishop Fulton Sheen and I love this video.

Thank you Bishop!

Thank goodness for the livestreaming now available to those like me who are incapable of going to a church for holy hour before the Blessed Sacrament. I like it a lot. And yes, it is my favourite spot for writing, reading and praying.

Beautiful Bishop. Thank you and God bless you.

I enjoy the stories to help myself, thank you Bishop Barron

We need another Fulton Sheen

I love it! I was supposed to hear this now. Thank you!

Thanks for the encouragement!

Thanks a lot bishop for sharing with us the life of great bishop Fulton j sheen may everliving God bless you.

I’m from Bardstown Kentucky, the area where bishop Spalding was from! His great-great-great nephew was my associate pastor as a child and is now bishop of Nashville! This connectivity of the Catholic Church is amazing!

I was baptized at the Cathedral of St Mary in peoria 2 years ago at the Easter Vigil. It was amazing and im blown away i hadnt seen this until now!

The only way to start your Sunday before Mass. Thank you for this inspiration.

How much of Holy Catholic Church and Her Mystical Body would stay hidden if not for you, The Great Bishop Barron.

Thank you editors and the bishop, it`s so high in quality, great job

"It is impossible for me to explain how helpful the Holy Hour has been in preserving my vocation. Scripture gives considerable evidence to prove that a priest begins to fail his priesthood when he fails in his love of the Eucharist. Too often it is assumed that Judas fell because he loved money. Avarice is very rarely the beginning of the lapse and the fall of the ambassador. The history of the Church proves there are many with money who stayed in it. The beginning of the fall of Judas and the end of Judas both revolved around the Eucharist. The first mention that Our Lord knew who it was who would betray him is at the end of the sixth chapter of John, which is the announcement of the Eucharist. The fall of Judas came the night Our Lord gave the Eucharist, the night of the Last Supper." from A Treasure in Clay, the Autobiography of Archbishop Sheen

Beautiful, thank you! 🙏

I love your devotion to spreading the Love of God. Thank you and please continue. May God continue to bless you. Please pray for us in the carolinas

Wonderful teaching by Bishop Baron

I alwaysed love Rev Fulton Sheen but after hearing Bishop Barrons inspiring talk about Fulton Sheen I feel closer to him and love him more. I pray often that someday he will be a Saint❤️🙏🙏🙏

I wish Bishop Fulton Sheen was alive to thank him for his works iam average person but he save my life God bless him

Childhood priest lectures on black and white television... thank you Bishop Sheen, bishop Barron, cast and crew of Word on Fire... Mabuhay

Such a beautiful, holy, and moving cathedral, one that nurtured a bishop who would move and call so many to holiness through TV and media. I know you are humble, Bishop Barron. But know that you are a good follower of Fulton Sheen's work!

A beautiful Church.

This year 2018 I absolutely amazed with his holiness...love for the poor, 1hr holy adoration daily, BRILLIANCE of his minds ...great teacher with simple words...I at times pray & asks his assistance in my study. Hope he becomes a SAINT soon. Praise GOD for ARCHBISHOP FULTON SHEEN.

This is awesome!

Thanks bishop Barron.

Thank you.

Very much Blessed with Fulton sheen " life worth living"

Venerable Fulton Sheen my inspiration as a sinner in need of repentance

The ceiling of that cathedral is breathtaking.

AMEN !!!

You are doing great work bishop Barron. You seem though as a drop of water in a glass of wine...

Thank you Bishop Robert Barron! God greatly bless you!

You are my Aquinas

My dear sister Bette--------the ministry you have chosen is truly a SPECIAL ministry...........I too am a Grief Minister for 30 yrs. Have preformed many,many vigils (rosary) and grave side services. To this day when I am finished doing this........I walk away feeling 10 feet tall knowing. I know now what it is ment to be a Christian. We are the future Church Ministers..............Ave Atque Vale..............Sister Bette............

My dying Mother way back was given the Book The life of Christ by Fulton Sheen one which I treasured and gave to those who did not believe.

Salve Salve from Brasil.

The common sense And wisdom of b sheen, in time he will out shine john 23rd and john paul the second!

Priests in the Churches I went to, not only did nothing about people they knew were coming into the Church just to harass me, but they encouraged and helped them at it. Now I have not set foot in a Church in 7months.

I love Bishop Sheen. Can someone tell me the song that plays at the beginning of this video?

What was the music at the beginning folks?

Arc Bishop Fulton Sheen was a brilliant MAN and preacher who could explain from His experience how the Holy Spirit can come into your life .Nobody could preach the Bible like Him in his Generation .He new the Church would be destroyed from within .In heaven he is watching his Church been destroyed by the Filth that has been allowed into the Clergy .I don’t think he would have ever thought it would not be safe for Gods Children to be safe in the Catholic Church or that we would have clergy preaching the act of homosexuality and been supported by Cardinals and Bishops .That the Ten Commandments are not been supported by the Hierarchy or that Catholic priests are been sent off to Nazi reprogramming classes because they teach the word of God.Pulling down statues of saints and the Best a Bishop can say it’s up to the Parishioners to sort it out .What would he say about the Church’s been closed.Bishop Fulton Sheen would say if he seen a Catholic politican openly supporting Abortion he would warm him and tell him he would be excommunicated if he kept doing it .Can you imagine in his day been asked to preach to hundreds in a non Catholic Church .He was the greatest

This man deserves to be canonized But at this we need a miracle.

Amen

Amen🙏

One saint discussing another

I attend holy hour but after the holy hour i just stay silent and fall asleep is that ok?

In Webster, SD, my Grandparents managed to ask for Bishop Fulton Sheen to get on to PBS. Don't ask me how they did it. Probably had something to do with Lawrence Welk. Which is pretty devout, if you ask me.

You me mention Fulton Sheen. I just watched the firing line with William F. Buckley, a crazy level of intellectual involvement and intellectual discussion. And of course Sheen loved Chesterton and quoted him often.

Please work for unity and purification of Catholic church. From India

Why do you put your cross under the left side of your jacket during these videos?

What is the wonderful song at the start of this video?

I hope Bishop Barron becomes as courageous as the Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen.

Can we please start opening parishes up during the day and evenings? I would love to go in for adoration but my parish is locked when I get off work. 😭

Cardinal Dolan are you listening? Give Sheen back to Peoria!!!!

Put the legend, please!

My mom loved him. My siblings called him “Mom’s Boy “

My priest just gave me one of his books on marriage.

I’m happy bishop Barron is a fan of AB sheen. I’m only in my 40s but we watched him on tv via ewtn in the 90s. And loved him. But very disappointed with our current heirarchy and the usual suspects ( Dolan and a few others) in the way of sheens path to sainthood. So sad what pope Francis and the United States bishops are doing to our country & world.And now with archbishop sheen halt to sainthood -I guess doesn’t matter for sheen because is in heaven & he is with the lord.

Im a nobody. But ive always felt the same. I just want to be in church.

where is your cross?

Love the video. Where can I find the music that plays during the outro?

Time to upgrade him to "Blessed" level.

Prayer: just do it

Disgusting what is happening in Europe atm, we need a muscular Christianity here. More inspirational figures for the youth today preaching the Gospel and teaching them values.

SO if all My past is front all as Will be on the final judge i'm happy fine cause My first looking at all My life ever was do the Will from Jesús Christ and I learnt to LOVE in My family little i learnt more with Daddy Shah Rukh Khan who's show me the expressions that i never Guess and the sing and dance for our Souls in Freedom and Hard work. Obviously i ever was with much singers and actress and actors cause i really LOVE them and was Godself who's get us united i never Guess before

It is interesting that we need to be reminded about prayer…shouldn’t one hour a day dedicated only to God be a standard? It is just so not easy, there are always million responsibilities and things to do. So, I guess, yes, we need to be reminded, as this is a real effort on a daily basis….

The Church needs to declare Fulton Sheen a saint. Hes a Holy man…. It is past time.

He recommended 1 hour for religious,and 15min for lay people.

I'm not being trying to be awkward here but Bishop Barron should refer to Bishop Sheen as Bishop Sheen and not Sheen and one day soon hopefully it will be Saint Bishop Sheen.

X

Fulton Sheen true man of GOD who teach us how to be faithful Catholics, unlike Robert "woke culturist" Barron.

haha priests you'll become a social worker :))))))))

Not one priest, bishop, cardinal or pope will go to bed hungry or without shelter this night.

Your excellency, why don't you speak up against the wicked bishops that are trying stop the canonisation of Fulton Sheen?

Talk about the elephant in the room.

Sheen, a SAINT & he’s what a Prince of the Church should be. Trust me, Sheen in heaven, is ASHAMED of Barron & his kind!

I knew nothing of Fr Sheen until recently, but initial impressions are he was a right-wing nut job. May have this totally wrong of course, so opinions are invited.
