The Resurrection - Fulton Sheen

Bishop Sheen talks about celebrating Easter in a world that seems more like Good Friday... Evil has its hour but God has His day. Unless there is a Good Friday there will never be an Easter Sunday

The resurrection of Jesus, or anastasis, is the Christian belief that God raised Jesus on the third day after his crucifixion, starting his exalted life as Christ and Lord. According to the New Testament writings he was firstborn from the dead, ushering in the Kingdom of God. He appeared to his disciples, calling the apostles to the Great Commission of proclaiming the Gospel of eternal salvation through his death and resurrection, whereafter he ascended to Heaven. In Christian theology, the death and resurrection of Jesus are the most important events, a foundation of the Christian faith, as commemorated by Easter.

Fulton John Sheen was an American bishop (later archbishop) of the Catholic Church known for his preaching and especially his work on television and radio. Ordained a priest of the Diocese of Peoria in 1919, Sheen quickly became a renowned theologian

For 20 years as Father Sheen, later Monsignor, hosted the night-time radio program The Catholic Hour on NBC (1930–1950) before moving to television and presenting Life Is Worth Living

Originally Broadcast 4/12/1942 in the dark days of WWII
