Alan Smith, a member of the advisory board for the cause of soon-to-be Blessed Fulton J. Sheen, joins the Son Rise Morning Show to continue exploring Sheen's reflections on the Holy Hour. Drawing from Lord, Teach Us to Pray and the writings of St. Peter Julian Eymard, Smith reflects on Sheen's meditation on the Eucharist as “the Need of Our Heart.”

The discussion centers on three powerful themes: Christ's presence, His generosity, and our union with Him. The Eucharist is not merely a reminder of Jesus or a gift that He gives us—it is Jesus Himself, waiting for us in the tabernacle and offering us His merits, His grace, and ultimately His very self.

Smith and the Son Rise Morning Show also explore how Eucharistic devotion transforms us into disciples: we become what we adore. Through time spent with Christ in Eucharistic prayer and Holy Hours, we are gradually drawn into deeper union with Him and formed to become more like Him.
