No one could quite turn a phrase like the Venerable Fulton Sheen. He was a huge media star because he related the message of the Gospels in a way that was relatable and memorable. In our current materialistic, selfish world, his Lenten Journey message resonates: we should be mindful to “love people and use things” rather than the other way around.
