Kindly Light brings you a film that examines effective preaching via the words of Fulton J. Sheen, with St. Paul as the Archbishop's model.

Featuring never-before-seen footage of Sheen's preaching, along with exclusive interviews from experts, including Cardinal Christoph Schönborn; Fr. Andrew Apostoli, CFR; Fr. Romanus Cessario, OP; Fr. Peter John Cameron, OP; Fr. George Rutler, STD; Fr. Paul Murray, OP, and more.

Venerable Fulton J. Sheen is the American archbishop of the 20th-century famous for his preaching, radio/TV personality, missionary work, and contributions to theology, most often remembered for his television series, “Life is Worth Living,” which had a viewing audience of over 30 million people. His cause for canonization is well underway.

This Campaign ends on the 118th birthday of Venerable Fulton J. Sheen (May 8, 1895):

This is a wonderful opportunity to share with you a gift very dear to our hearts: the Holy Rosary! Saint Dominic, the founder of the Order of Preachers, received it as a gift from Our Lady. The Rosary is a special devotion which Our Lady of Fatima explained is crucial for attaining world peace. Along with your generous financial support we are also in need of prayers for an insightful film. Thank-you for both! Also included: a Bookmark of Dominican Student Brothers and Letter of Gratitude.
