Publisher's Summary

Treasure in Clay provides a lifetime's worth of wisdom from one of the most beloved and influential religious figures of the 20th century. Billy Graham called Bishop Sheen the "Great Communicator" since Sheen pioneered religious programming on both radio and TV with his signature program Life is Worth Living. In 1952 Sheen received an Emmy Award for Most Outstanding Television Personality.

This autobiography includes childhood and seminary reflections, as well as Sheen's views on media stardom, pastoral work, international travels, conversions, Vatican II, Mary, and more. Listeners can expect to hear many of this saintly and sage communicator's famous phrases and inspiring stories. Treasure in Clay illuminates why Bishop Sheen is now called "Servant of God", a step towards possible canonization in the Catholic Church.

Inspiring Autobiography

I love Archbishop Fulton Sheen and his writings. His autobiography is no exception. It was great to hear about his own life from his perspective, about what he felt was most important to share about it - and, in that way, to receive inspiration on how to live our lives the way he lived his. I especially enjoyed his emphasis on the importance of his daily Holy Hour!

I was afraid at first about the narration. Could anyone compare with Fulton Sheen's dynamic and thundering style of preaching and lecturing? Luckily, the narrator did a great job. I thought the narration would be distracting or bland, but it was neither. He reminded me of Fulton Sheen at times, too!
