Advent & Christmas with Fulton J. Sheen

Edited and Compiled by Judy Bauer. Few times are more sacred for a Christian family or household than Christmas. Advent and Christmas are a time of sharing, a time of storytelling, a time to clear your mind and cleanse your soul through deepened spirituality. The weeks of Advent remind us to set aside some of the hectic business of the holiday season, and to quietly reflect on the promise of the baby born in Bethelehem 2,000 years ago. These selections from the immortal pen of Bishop Fulton J. Sheen stir our hearts and imaginations as we embark on our Advent journey toward a better understanding of Jesus' love. Covering the traditional themes of Advent -- waiting for the Annunciation, following the star, Bethlehem, Herod, the manger -- these 45 passages and accompanying mini-prayers offer readers practical spirituality for the hustle and bustle of the holidays. 128 pages; Paperback

Christ-Centered Wisdom for the Third Millennium by Fulton J. Sheen

This compendium, published on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of Sheen?s death, is more than anything, a celebration of life: our life in Christ and our destiny in faith. The words of Fulton J. Sheen ring as clear and true for the next century as they did for the twentieth.

A fierce defender of the Christian faith, a gifted communicator who touched the minds and souls of millions, a man of deep prayer, and, above all, a wise and knowledgeable teacher, Sheen wrote and spoke prolifically of the oneness of all in the Body of Christ. He addressed our interconnectedness both with others and with God; the challenges that accompany us in our walk in faith; the hurts and questions that plague our spiritual life; the continuum from birth to death to new life; our realization that we do not suffer alone; our love, forgiveness, and patience; our steadfastness, devotion, and sacrifice; and the sharing of our faith to spread our gifts among the global human family.

These are the themes of this book, drawn largely from Sheen?s radio talks, retreat conferences, and other sources. And, in his inimitable style, he elucidates their common denominator in both our individual life as well as our communal life. The center, or core, is the saving Christ. If there is one overarching theme to Sheen's preaching and teaching, it is that Christ is our foundation, our center, our one and only link to a life of fullness - indeed, a life without end. In The Fullness of Time renews our understanding and appreciation of the Christian life and the promise of faith. 160 pages; Paperback. Ligouri Publications.

Fulton Sheen's Wartime Prayer Book
Written for soldiers by Msgr. Fulton Sheen in the darkest moments of World War II, this small (2 7/8 x 4 3/8 inch) prayer book has been proven in combat and hallowed by the suffering, prayers, and sacrifices of thousands of Catholic fighting men and women on ships, submarines, and aircraft, in fortresses and foxholes, and even in hellish prisoner of war camps across Europe and the Pacific.

Peacetime led those soldiers and sailors to put aside this powerful wartime prayer book as they entered a world rendered more secure because of their sacrifices.

Sophia Institute Press has published this great treasure as Fulton Sheen's Wartime Prayer Book, in a pocket-sized leatherette edition similar to the original.
