Why Fulton Sheen’s Voice Matters Now More Than Ever

In a world awash with shifting opinions, relativism, and ever-changing cultural narratives, the timeless clarity of Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen shines like a beacon. In my latest Catholic Unscripted post, “Fulton Sheen Shows Us That Truth Can Never Be Outdated,” I explore why Sheen’s fearless proclamation of the Gospel isn’t just history — it’s a blueprint for today’s Church and culture.

Sheen wasn’t just a brilliant philosopher, preacher, and televangelist. He was a pastor who drew millions to Christ because he wasn’t afraid to speak truth — even the hard truths — with intellectual depth, personal warmth, and humor. His preaching reached Catholics and non-Catholics alike, and his influence continues to echo across generations.

One of the most striking aspects of Sheen’s teaching was his insistence that truth is objective and enduring — not malleable to fit the latest trends or cultural preferences. As Sheen himself emphasized in his talks and writings, “Tolerance … restrains us from inflicting punishment, but only truth frees us and directs us toward God.”

Today, when many in Church leadership prefer ambiguity over assertion and comfort over conviction, Sheen’s example is both inspiring and challenging. He reminds us that standing firm in truth is not outdated — it’s essential.
