Archbishop Fulton Sheen brilliantly examines the vast differences between the benefits of psychotherapy and true confession that leads to conversion. While one may help the patient gain some peace of mind, the Christian gains something far greater through the grace of Confession: peace of soul.
Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen (1895-1979), one of the 20th century’s best-known and loved Catholic prelates, was a lecturer, professor, philosopher, preacher, and writer. He is widely regarded as the first clerical radio and television personality, hosting the popular “Life is Worth Living” TV show. He served as director of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith. A prolific writer, Archbishop Sheen authored two weekly syndicated newspaper columns that ran for nearly two decades as well as books including, The Cross and the Beatitudes: Lessons on Love and Forgiveness, Peace of Soul, and From the Angel’s Blackboard: The Best of Fulton J. Sheen.
