Amazing audiobook!!!!

What made the experience of listening to Life Is Worth Living, Part 1 the most enjoyable?

He is a great teacher very articulate and poetic and I've learned more about the Catholic faith then I ever knew and not just the Catholic faith. You don't have to be catholic to read this I'm not.

What did you like best about this story?

Everything but I liked how he explained the veneration to Mary and why the Catholic Church honors her.

Every chapter was great. I can't decide

My entire life has changed. Thank you ArchBishop Fulton Sheen.

ArchBishop Fulton Sheen has enlightened me to so many things that I thought I knew, yet I really did not. He showed me that despite our human ways, we are so loved by God. ArchBishop is one of my earthly heroes.

Wonderful

Venerable Archbishop Fulton Sheen has long been a favorite apologist/evangelist of mine. I remember watching him every week on tv when I was a young child. He was humorous, theatrical, entertaining, and taught the truths of the faith. I remember him always at his chalkboard and he never began writing until he first wrote the initials: JMJ, for Jesus, Mary, and Joseph. He was a wonderfully gifted orator. This is a great collection of his talks, which he always gave without a written script! Magnificent!

Undeniable truth from a future Saint

Listen to this series as often as you can. Any lack of faith will be gone. An excellent defense of the faith. I would love to hear an atheist or agnostic debate the Venerable Sheen on his faith and The Church in particular. What a privilege to hear these talks. Enjoy the gift.

The Everlasting Way

The Venerable and Most Reverend Fulton Sheen, a treasure of the Roman Catholic Church, is the 20th Century's John the Baptist, clearly and rationally explaining the straight and unencumbered path of Christ, the only Way to a blessed eternity.
