A Brief Life of Christ

Fulton J. Sheen turned his voice and pen to many subjects during the course of a long and remarkable apostolate. But nothing came closer to the core of his message than bringing the life and saving words of Jesus to the problems of modern life and the modern world. In A Brief Life of Christ, Sheen draws out the meaning of the life of Jesus for our time and shows how Christ issues His challenge alike to nations, peoples, and individual souls. The final chapters on Christ's public life, and Passion, Death, and Resurrection contain tremendous insights and provide material for a lifetime of reflection.

Fulton J. Sheen

Fulton Sheen was unparalleled in his ability to combine theology, devotion, and the profoundest meditation on the central events of the Christian narrative. Displayed here in full are the literary and rhetorical gifts of one of the greatest preachers of the twentieth century. A Brief Life of Christ is a book to lift our hearts and place them securely in the timeless message of the gospels.
