Life of Christ - Archbishop Fulton Sheen
By Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen
Widely proclaimed a classic work of Christian faith, Life of Christ has been hailed as the most eloquent of Fulton J. Sheen's many books.
The fruit of many years of reflection, prayer, and research, it is a dramatic and moving recounting of the birth, life, Crucifixion, and Resurrection of Christ, and a passionate portrait of the God-Man, the teacher, the healer, and most of all the Savior, whose promise has sustained humanity for two millennia.
With his customary insight and reverance, Sheen interprets the scripture and describes Christ, not only in historical perspective, but also in exciting and contemporary terms, seeing in Christ's life both modern parallels and timeless lessons. His thoughtful, probing analysis provides new insight into well-known Gospel events.
An appealing blend of philosophy, history, and Biblical exegesis, from the best-known and most-loved American Catholic leader of the twentieth century, Life of Christ has long been a source of inspiration and guidance. For those seeking to better understand the message of Jesus Christ, this vivid retelling of the greatest story ever lived is a must read.

Fulton Sheen should become a Saint and Doctor of the Church
Posted by Steve Matusheski on 1st Sep 2014
I have read a little over 100 pages so far. I go back and read things over again. It is so inspiring. It is not difficult to read. If you have read Sheen, he has a way of taking difficult concepts and making them simple and understandable. Would recommend to anyone. Although written some time ago, truth is always the same and so relevant today.
