I'm a pentecostal protestant but heading to catholic church after got answers to my questions which I never got from my protestant church since 11 years of my faithful walk in pentecostal denomination. Now I'm convinced there is only ONE HOLY CATHOLIC APOSTOLIC CHURCH which catholic church only, whom Jesus gave the keys to st. Peter.
I am a non denominational Protestant. Just ran across Bishop Sheehan today for 1st time. This man is an amazing orator and champion for the gospel. Made me reconsider my biases against the Catholic Church.
Sorry Poodle, but Jesus only established ONE Church. One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church. If all brothers and sisters were from the same faith then all would believe the same, but they don't. For 1500 years all Christians believed the same, and then came the protestant revolt.
Adam, my brother-in-Christ, I encourage you to continue beyond the reconsidering of your biases against Catholicism. At this present time, Catholics are undergoing tremendous scandal and evil in her body, mainly from its clergy. You see, simply because some are in error, does not automatically compute to the entire priesthood being stained as well. Holy Mother Church is holy, yes indeed. It is her MEMBERS that are sinful, and there are many (in terms of numbers, Catholics are the highest number of Christians in the world). This is why these scandals are multiplied and focused more upon by the mainstream media. There is much beauty and awe about the church throughout her overt 2000 years in existence. She is always persecuted, many times very unjustly, but she welcomes it and offers it up to the Father in Heaven, following the lead of her Divine Savior and founder..... Our Lord Jesus Christ. Blessings to you brother.
I’m 62, born in 1961. Raised in a Baptist and Methodist household. When I was a child in the 1960s, my mother loved to watch the short clips of Bishop Sheen’s messages shown at the end of certain programs. She always talked about how she used to listen to his program back in the 1950s. I was baptized Presbyterian during college and confirmed in the Episcopal church. At 50, I converted to Catholicism. I’m glad I grew up in a home where all Christians were valued. ❤️🙏
I was protestant all my life until God led me to actually learn about true Catholicisim .I converted at 34yrs old and it's the true teachings of the apostles ,and God told us to follow the teachings of the apostles, whether by word or tradition.
Dear Jesus and Mary. Please help my daughter Rachel find a meaningful life and shake off her despair and loneliness. Help her to realize that she is a child loved by God and that the Church is waiting to help her in every way possible. Give her peace of mind and a purpose sanctioned by you. ✝️🙏🏻❤️🔥
RadioChief this is the reason why no one's going to church anymore and the religion is dying out because the priest just talked about current events to them there is no God
Once upon a time, Archbishop Sheen had a beautiful TV program. My parents would drop everything and watch him. This was in the '60's to early '70's if I'm correct. Can you imagine if he was on TV now, what a breath of fresh air he would be for the world? Bishop Sheen, pray for us!
LordDeliverUs we need him more than ever now. Priest in the Roman Catholic Church don't believe like him anymore or preach like him anymore our religion is dying out. God saves us. We need good holy priests and no one is applying for the job.
poodle.....The Holy Spirit is drawing Godly men and women into consecrated life ministry these days. This generation is blessed with effective Catholic Apologists, most of whom are former Protestant ministers and are spreading the gospel message from the heart of the Church worldwide. "Our religion is dying out".... Where and why do you conclude that? I reverted to the RCC in 1988 and the spiritual wealth of life giving catechesis available today is unparalleled, We are fed through "our daily bread"and Catholic Christian Media in many forms every single day, Thanks be to God, "Seek and ye shall find"!
It beats me to see God withdrawing His best guns from the front line now that I'm sure they would be such a must.. Seems like He's preparing grounds for His biggest cannon to get into play.. His Son's Mother - Our Lady.. the Blessed Virgin Mary..
This is my second time watching this video. I watched it about 8 years ago when I was closer to the faith. Watched it again this morning during my gym workout, makes even more sense now then it did then. I needed this. 🙏🏻
Venerable Fulton Sheen blessed my family with a miracle. We prayed to Venerable Sheen for months and my children and I are now safe, no longer homeless and no longer threatened. JMJ This could have only happened by the miraculous intercession of Venerable Sheen. We will send this story to the Vatican. Thank GOD for Venerable Sheen as he needs to be granted Sainthood!
MyNana - I think we can agree that Fulton Sheen was a good man, but he was not and is not God and to imagine that because your problems resolved as a result of 'praying' to him is very problematic in biblical terms. He was a very inspirational man and messenger from God but it's very worrisome that so many of his appreciators have elevated him to the position of God Himself! Fulton Sheen is now in the position of all the dead who 'know nothing' so I would ask you to reconsider your belief that you can pray to the dead!!!
@@evelynvanzale4757 I offer in charity that you have much to learn about the Catholic Faith, the Saints, and intercessory prayer. And you will not learn by listening to the same anti-Catholic opinions.
@@SuperIliad - I'm a born and bred Catholic (although would self-describe now as a Christian as opposed to a Catholic since this pope was the final straw for me!). I was well-schooled in relation to the church and its doctrine; however, since the bible states clearly that the dead are simply dead, I have a problem with the contradictions when it comes to 'intercessory prayer'. Of course, being from an Irish background, I was well used to the constant reference to the dead, but it was steeped in superstition and I took it with a pinch of salt so I think we'll have to agree to differ in this respect!
@@evelynvanzale4757 You owe it to yourself to study the Fathers and Mothers of the Earliest Church; the Shepherd of Hermas, and the "Early Christian Fathers" (LCCN 72-123888), and to test the best Catholic minds and not accept what has been done to doctrine over time. You might pay heed to converts such as Steve Ray, Scott Hahn, John Bergsma, and others, who went past their prejudices and found deeper levels of Scripture they had never properly seen. Consider too that this besieged Church you left is besieged by Satan, as predicted, because it is the family Christ called together. Judas departed because the ecclesia was not taking the direction he saw as best. No, you’re not Judas, but we are all prone to say after Dante's chief demon, "Non serviam."
I saved this video to Watch Later as I was busy and didn’t intend to watch this now. However, once Bishop Sheen started talking I simply couldn’t tear myself away. He’s absolutely mesmerizing and so full of goodness and joy! I used to watch him often, as a teenager, when my devout Catholic mother would tune in to his tv program. I didn’t realize then what a charismatic speaker he was. How I wish he were still with us. We need him now more than ever!
I started smiling and laughing while listening to his Homily but I didn't expect crying at end. His Homily really touched my soul. Praise God for Bishop Fulton Sheen!
I remember you with loving memories, Fulton Sheen ❤ Thank you for my fifth grade confirmation, always answering my letters, validating my humor and shaping my identity
I was lazy and ungrateful for the wonderful life God has given me. Lord give me the strength to love you so that I may never act without the fullness of Your love again. May I learn how to serve You wish. Amen.
Best "televangelist" ever. Not only was he a brilliant man, he could have been a standup comic in another life. He was that witty. There was a good reason why he was so popular in the early years of television.
I am not a Christian, although I was raised Seventh-Day Adventist; However I enjoy the Venerable Bishop Fulton Sheen's humor, articulation, rhetoric, self-consistency, and intelligent presentation of practical Roman Catholic theology - which fascinates me.
Be more catholic than catholic hypocrites that don’t do what Catholic Church says, read about Newman conversion, Ignatio Antiochus, Andre Frossand, Thomas Moro, Popiłszek, sorry don’t remember exactly the spelling of them in English cause I speak other languages 2
I am from South Africa and belong to the Dutch Reformed Church. My sister-in-law is also in this country and a Roman Catholic. I have never heard this man speak or even heard of him but am so grateful for the chance of listening to him. Thank you my Sussa. I have now subscribed as I can listen to him for much longer. He shows us there can be fun in the gospel!! And yet he susstantiates everything according to the gospel with absolute truth. I love it!!!!
Why 200 thumbs down? For what???🤔 I pray to God for their conversion. Oh! How blessed these young audience were to hear him live. He really lifts my spirit each time I listen to any of his sermons. Please keep us in your prayers from up there.🙏💕
As a child and teenager I would sit on the floor with my ear to the radio to listen to his stories; stories based on life lessons that made the Gospel come alive for me! Now, in my older years, I find myself doing more and more of what I learned from him - give of myself to others for the love of God! He was my hero then, and nowadays, it's Bishop Robert Barron! Thank you God for the gifts of Evangelizers!
+Catholic Seymour . Look up Our Lady of LaSalette2. >vaticancatholic.cm< to cap it all off from an 80-year man who has been through sex abuse, which destroyed all but my love of God >joemitchell137@gmail.com
Zero evidence for the Jews before 950 BCE. He was a deluded old man, who firmly believed in his silliness and indeed profited from his delusions. That's class!!! You are simply dazzled by Christian brainwashing, Rube!!! Christians NEVER check Bible facts. Watch RU-vid Video, "Pastor Shaves Vaginas in Church."
@@josephmitchell9392 Zero proof of the Jews before 950 BCE. They made it up and you never check Bible facts, Powderpuff. Lurking in a creepy cult us fun, but you are too old to be duped and OWNED by bottomfeeders, friend. Watch RU-vid Video, "Pastor Shaves Vaginas in Church." Please read the small print on your spiritual plane ticket, Dude.
Just can't stop listening to Fulton Sheen. 30 mins seem like 3 mins . He's not only inspiring but keeps the stories alive with fun. What a preacher and orator!
I remember sitting with my parents and listening to Bishop Sheen on our radio. How wise a man he was, and how I wish his speeches/sermons could go viral today. We all need to experience his brilliant story telling as God's messenger.

I'm a Protestant, not on board with much in catholicism but I have stumbled on a couple of sermons including this one - I'm floored - one of the best messages I've heard, the cardinal is incredibly funny (laughed out loud at least 3x) and the end message was one of the most profound of the Christian faith. Notice at one point he referred to us "Christians" not just Catholics - incredible servant of the Lord. I believe there is a change coming when the rift betw Protestant and Catholic healed and there will be one body of Believers again united in the gospel message as it was in the early church - God bless you.
I used to watch Bishop Sheen's weekly TV shows when I was little. I loved him. A flair for the dramatic, a great sense of humor, and so much gusto in delivering his message.
@@glendamcgee1779 He gave me hope and a love of God as a youth in the 50's when he was on tv . Better than sermons I heard in church. I still love him too.
I'm a 'grateful recovering alcoholic' and have been for over 38 years, since I was miraculously 'born again' in a dungeon-like county jail, in the midwest U.S. back in '81. ☆ As a Protestant Evangelical whose former police record was cleared, far beyond the national averages of substantial numbers of individuals nearly 25 years ago in 1996. ☆ I just discovered Fulton J. Sheen a few years ago and most assuredly appreciate his insights, humor, manner of delivery, intelligence, courteous mannerisms, and decent vocabulary.
For the first 70 years of my life, I always berated myself for not working hard enough, for not doing enough, for being lazy; now, I don't do as much at all as I used to, but I firmly believe the God loves me, even as I am.
Yes, God loves you and I of who we are and He has proved it upon the Cross. But this is not merely about God; it is about how has you and I responded to His Unconditional Love by loving others as we, all, are called to do. As St. Paul has said, “ In Him we can do all things.” Let us trust in God and not in our strength.
Please pray for my court proceedings, pray for my husband and my whole family. May we find the resources to move out of our RV and build our home. In Jesus holy name I pray Amen†
Breath taking, no other way to describe Bishop Sheens lessons from the Gospel. He makes the Gospels come to life. You cannot listen to him and walk away not realizing why the Gospel is every bit if not more relevant than when it was preached so long ago. Thank God He blessed our Holy Mother Church with such a devoted Sheppard and servant. Saint Fulton Sheen, it will sound so fittingly beautiful to finally say very soon.
***** God bless you too Luke and let's pray for Holy Mother Church, near and far. We have a great friend in heaven when he becomes a saint :) Till then, keep the faith, share it as well.
all believers are saints read the bible, man made saints is an abomination before God, it's call Idolatry to worship another person or object, Bishop Fulton was a true born again catholic that prayed to Jesus not Mary, he believed in the blood shed at the cross of Calvary, Praise God for his true faith in Christ.
Let us pray for our Catholic Hierarchy Leaders, to be bold, to be generous, and to be holy like Christ Jesus, as Venerable Bishop Fulton Sheen, in defending the church and guiding the sheep that Christ has untrusted unto them, into the Truth.
I was a young child during the Bishop's lifetime, but I have re-discovered his amazing ability to translate Catholicism in a way that is easy to comprehend and to bring the religion to life. I would love to have this kind of homily each week from the pulpit.
Agreed fully. Believe the impossible and you can do the incredible! No tiredness in work, prayer and duties when we love the Blessed Lord! Pray for us Bishop Sheen.
@@jackmekauff3265 You are in a mistake and error because you don’t know and you don’t comprehend the holy Scriptures. God is a God of living, no of death. God is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob not a God of dead people.
I have to agree. In the spiritual sense Bishop Sheen is more alive than we are because he’s beholding the face of God. Wow. that’s amazing to think about. If we really think about it we should all strive to be where he is.
I am the same today in listening to him as I was back in my teens (the 50's)! What's so amazing is that every topic he touched on is still relevant today? Just like the Bible. Only the names and places change. Like me - I had to change. I thought going to Mass, making my Sacraments, minding my own business, and not breaking any laws was all I had to do? Little did I know that I needed to really understand the meaning of the Ten Commandments, and how to apply Scripture in my own life!
I watch this very often but every time I watch it I get new insights and motivation. Love Sheen so much and everyone of his talks! Such a strong image of the holy spirit speaking through his people!
Michael Gundorph - We probably could have a spokesman for the Catholic Church of similar calibre, but the Pope would stop him in his tracks very quickly since the last thing Pope Francis wants is devout followers of Jesus' message hindering his and his globalist friends' agenda!!!
We do! Just look and you'll find them. Just to mention a couple, look up Bishop Robert Barron, or Fr. Mike Schmitz. And there are also many wonderful lay purple people that make me proud to be Catholic, like Scott Hahn or Brant Pitre.
Archbishop Sheen you are our loyal Son of God. You spoke the truth and lived it all your life. And now you are reaping the harvest. Please Pray for our Bishops and the Church that has fallen from grace. Our Lady of Mercy be our mother to all Suffering Souls who are being Persecuted for their Faith and for speaking the Truth. 🙏🏻
I have only learned of the Venerable Archbishop today after reading of his impending Beatification. I wish there were more priests like him in the world. Clearly he was a good man May he rest in peace
So blessed to have grown up listening to this gifted priest. Sitting next to my devout mother....passing the Faith on to me. Some of my most cherished memories of my mother and blessed Fulton Sheen. 📿💞💕❤️💗✝️
What a wonderful sermon. Billy Graham, who was A friend if Bishop sheen remarked at Sheen's funeral. I'm not a preacher. I just exhort. But that man could PREACH!
@@rosaryforfamily3984 not unless he converted to the Catholic faith. There is no salvation outside of the Catholic Church. So I fear for people like Billy Graham.
I think this video, is pure gold, I wish everyone had the chance to see it at least once, specially young people, this video worth much more than anything among all that has being posted on any media. Thanks a lot Catholic clips to share.
It’s very humble! Congratulations ! I’m from a Calvinist Churchill, south of France. I became catholic after reading Thérèse of Lisieux. Then, parents brothers and sisters too with there Family. Let’s be missionnaries now, with strenght and humility!
