INTRODUCING BISHOP SHEEN TO A NEW GENERATION
In one-way or another, we are all students. We attend classes each day while here on this earth. Some lessons are painful, while others bring us joy. Some of us apply ourselves to the task at hand, while others are hardheaded and slow to learn.
No matter how old or how young you are, Bishop Sheen has helped millions of people to make sense out of what many of us call ‘the mysteries of life’.
This website is designed to help introduce Bishop Sheen to a new generation of readers, listeners and viewers.
Here you will find some audio recordings given by Bishop Sheen. As well, there will be links to a number of YouTube videos, along with a list of books, pamphlets and publications written by this very wise and holy man.
Bishop Sheen is on a spiritual journey to Sainthood. We are all called to join him on this journey of becoming Saints. May I assure you that by listening, reading and watching Bishop Sheen your life will be enriched.
God Love You.
TRAINING OF PRIESTS AND SEMINARIANS
Each year we visit hundreds of seminarians across the country. We give to each one of them a selection of books written by Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen. Titles such as The Priest is Not His Own, Those Mysterious Priests, Life of Christ , The Worlds First Love, Treasures in Clay, Calvary and the Mass, Victory Over Vice, These are the Sacraments and The Way to Happiness are helpful resources in their spiritual formation. Along with these books, we give the seminarians a good supply of audio reflections from talks given by Archbishop Sheen during his years of radio broadcasts, television shows, lectures and retreats. Just think of the great homilies and spiritual council these men will be able to give after spending a few years studying these books and audio reflections.
It was said that “Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen spent the last 10 years of his life given retreats to Priests, Religious and Seminarians. He felt that the key to the renovation of the Catholic Church and the salvation of souls was to renew the priesthood”.
With your help, we hope to continue this work that he began many years ago by sharing these resources with these seminarians. God Love You.

The Greatest Commandment
In modernity, the word love is one of the most commonly misused and abused in our language. Devoid of order, misconceptions about love run rampant, steeped as we are in narcissism, secular humanism, relativism, and hedonism. Separated from God, society tragically propagates a notion of love that is, in truth, the antithesis of authentic love.
The Greatest Commandment is a timely reprint of Archbishop Sheen’s two seminal books Love One Another and God Love You. This anthology of his bestselling reflections also contains quotes and prayers that he compiled to foster ecumenism and societal unity.
Lord, Teach Us To Pray: Over the course of Archbishop Fulton Sheen’s storied career, thousands approached him with a simple request: “Teach us to pray.” Now, for the first time ever, his wise teachings on prayer have been collected into a single volume to help you perfect your prayers and make them what they must become: a daily, holy habit.
Prayer, meditation, Holy Hours, the Mass, and even a bit of philosophy: it’s all here in this delightful anthology of the works of the saintly archbishop Fulton J. Sheen!

Cries of Jesus from the Cross: For the first time ever, Archbishop Fulton Sheen’s complete writings and reflections on Christ’s last words have been compiled into this one book. Sheen shows how the seven words are, in fact, a full catechism on the spiritual life. From them, you’ll learn the secrets to living the Beatitudes, ways to avoid the deadly vices of anger, envy, lust, and pride, and how to cultivate the heavenly virtues of fortitude, prudence, justice, and charity.
