"Treasure in Clay "provides a lifetime's worth of wisdom from
one of the most beloved and influential figures in
twentieth-century Catholicism.
Completed shortly before his death in 1979, "Treasure in Clay "is
the autobiography of Fulton J. Sheen, the preeminent teacher,
preacher, and pastor of American Catholicism.
Called "the Great Communicator" by Billy Graham and "a prophet of
the times" by Pope Pius XII, Sheen was the voice of American
Catholicism for nearly fifty years. In addition to his prolific
writings, Sheen dominated the airwaves, first in radio, and later
television, with his signature program "Life is Worth Living,"
drawing an average of 30 million viewers a week in the 1950s. Sheen
had the ears of everyone from presidents to the common men, women,
and children in the pews, and his uplifting message of faith, hope,
and love shaped generations of Catholics.
Here in Sheen's own words are reflections from his childhood, his
years in seminary, his academic career, his media stardom, his
pastoral work, his extensive travels, and much more. Readers
already familiar with Sheen and as well as those coming to him for
the first time will find a fascinating glimpse into the Catholic
world Sheen inhabited, and will find inspiration in Sheen's
heartfelt recollections. "Treasure in Clay" is a classic book and a
lasting testament to a life that was worth living.
