He was perhaps the most loved and celebrate Catholic prelate of this of this century. The son of simple farmer, Sheen always felt a special calling to the priesthood, and —along the way to becoming an archbishop— he enjoyed a long and fruitful ministry of preaching, teaching, and writing scores books. His early radio broadcasts were a renowned success, and his later television series brought him into the hearts and homes of some 30 million viewers each week. Treasure in Clay is the story, in his own words, of Bishop Sheen's extraordinary life: his childhood reminiscences, his academic career, his mission travels, his media stardom, and more. A wealth of anecdotes enriches this wide-ranging memoir —stories from his public speaking engagements, his papal audiences, and his participation in Vatican Council II. Here too are many wonderful photographs that capture the dynamism, the wisdom, and the faith of this religious luminary. In addition, the book features a complete chronology and bibliography of the vast canon of Fulton J. Sheen's work. In sum, this is a lasting testament to a life that was indeed worth living. -Jacket.10aSheen, Fulton J.q(Fulton John),d1895-1979.20aCatholic ChurchzUnited StatesxBishopsvBiography.
