Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
Archbishop Fulton Sheen has been dead for more than two decades, but you'd never guess that from the number of his sermons and writings that are republished and anthologized every year. Into this mix, St. Andrew's Press offers something unique: a never-before-published book by Sheen. Your Life Is Worth Living: The Christian Philosophy of Life is based on a transcript of an audio narrative called "Life is Worth Living," which was also the title of Sheen's long-running inspirational television program. Here the archbishop investigates doctrinal issues (1965 was, importantly, the concluding year of the Second Vatican Council) and answers the questions of his many fans. The book, transcribed and edited by Jon Hallingstad, showcases Sheen's oratorical talents (amazingly, he recorded this using no notes at all) and demonstrates the homiletic depth that made him so popular. ($24.95 416p ISBN 0-9701456-8-3; Sept.)
From Booklist
Those searching for more personal theological and philosophical information to complement biographical overviews of Sheen's private life and professional career should check out Your Life Is Worth Living. This book, previously unpublished in written form, comprises the text of a 25-record audio recording released by Sheen in 1965 as an intimate response to the many inquiries about the intricacies of the Catholic religion he received in his capacity as the National Director for the Society of the Propagation of the Faith. Covering a range of topics such as the relationship between God and humanity, the significance of Christ as both God and man, the purpose of both sin and sacraments in daily life, and the fundamental tension between the soul and the material world, Sheen addresses an array of spiritual and corporeal issues that continue to intrigue and puzzle a new generation of both the faithful and the merely curious.
