William Doino Jr. on the true stardom of Fulton Sheen :
The name of Fulton J. Sheen brings to mind many things: “the Golden Age of Catholicism” . . . the stirring sermons . . . the amusing stories and dramatic conversions . . . the black cassock and red cape . . . the glistening pectoral cross . . . the angel cleaning the blackboard . . . and the signature sign-off to his Life is Worth Living television shows: “God love you!”
And now, a new description can be added to the list: a saint-in-waiting.
