The Church can now publicly honor one of America’s most beloved Catholic evangelists: Blessed Fulton Sheen.

On The Drew Mariani Show, Drew spoke with Monsignor Jason Gray, executive director of the Fulton Sheen Foundation, about what Sheen’s beatification means and what could come next.

For decades, Sheen used radio and television to proclaim the Gospel. Now, Msgr. Gray says his beatification gives the faithful a new opportunity to seek his intercession and rediscover his teaching.

The foundation is already examining several possible miracles that could potentially advance Sheen’s cause for canonization. Among the reported cases are children who recovered after suffering a lack of oxygen and a possible healing from stage 4 cancer. The Church will ultimately determine whether any qualifies as a miracle.

Meanwhile, plans are underway for the “Sheen Experience” in Peoria, Illinois. Located in Sheen’s former high school, the immersive museum will allow visitors to walk through different stages of his life and encounter his pioneering work in radio, television, teaching, and evangelization.

But perhaps Sheen’s greatest legacy is something every Catholic can imitate.

Msgr. Gray reflected on the enduring significance of Sheen’s famous program, Life Is Worth Living. Sheen wanted people to know that they were created by God, made to love Him, and made to be loved by Him.

That conviction was sustained by prayer. Despite his demanding schedule, Sheen was deeply devoted to making a daily Holy Hour before the Blessed Sacrament.

Not everyone can preach to enormous audiences or host a television program. But everyone can pray.

“Pray in your church, pray at home, pray where you can, but grow in prayer,” Msgr. Gray said.

It may be the simplest way to carry Blessed Fulton Sheen’s legacy forward: spend more time with the God who makes life worth living.
