The Miracle That Paved the Way for Fulton Sheen’s Beatification
Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen's beatification is approaching, and the story behind it is miraculous. John-Henry Westen speaks with Al Smith, a Canadian plumber who had never heard of Sheen and became one of his most dedicated promoters. Smith discovered Sheen through his writings, brought his talks to radio and seminaries, republished his works, and eventually served with the Sheen Foundation. He highlights Sheen's Marian and Carmelite spirituality, his commitment to the Holy Hour, and his determination to bring souls to Christ.But the most extraordinary part of the story is James Fulton Engstrom, the child whose approved healing was attributed to Sheen's intercession. The newborn showed no signs of life for 61 minutes as his family prayed for Sheen's intercession. Then his heart began beating again. He suffered no brain damage. Now 15 years old, he will process Sheen's relics at the beatification ceremony.Sheen was not simply a celebrated Catholic broadcaster. He was a spiritual teacher whose writings, devotion to Our Lady, Eucharistic spirituality, and zeal for souls can continue forming Catholics into disciples today. The miracle paved the way. The beatification is coming. And the question is whether a new generation will discover the teacher who never stopped pointing to Christ.Learn more at: www.celebratesheen.com & www.bishopsheentoday.comLife Site News supporters can get a 25% discount when they use the promo code Sheen25 at checkout at www.sophiainstitute.com to get the book!

Billions of Years or 6,000? The Great Debate on Creation vs Genesis
Published 18 Sept 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] And while this view is indeed more common, unanimous, and seems more in accord with the literal surface meaning. The former view of Augustine is more rational, and better defends Holy Scripture against the mockery of unbelievers. A matter Augustine teaches must be strictly observed, namely, that Scripture should be expounded in such a way as not to be ridiculed by unbelievers, and this opinion pleases me more. St. Thomas Aquinas is perhaps the greatest theological genius in 2,000 years of church history. The other disputant for that title would be St. Augustine of Hippo. Let's go to him directly. […]
