Reviews :
This book is an absolute masterpiece. Not only is it a well-researched scholarly work, but it has poetic beauty as well. This is a tribute to Jesus, God Manifested in the Flesh, and the finished work of Calvary. A ‘must read’ for all.
This is a most excellent book about the life of Jesus. In plain English it explains why he did what he did. His efforts to make the disciples understand the true purpose of his first coming. The prevailing attitudes of the Jews at the time, his rejection as Messiah. His role as Saviour rather than liberator. It’s a treasure trove of answers for those asking questions. I can’t put it down.

He was Bishop of Rochester, New York and American television’s first religious broadcaster of note, hosting Life Is Worth Living in the early 1950s, first on the DuMont Television Network and later on ABC, from 1951 to 1957. He later hosted The Fulton Sheen Program in syndication with a virtually identical format from 1961 to 1968; these later programs, many of which were taped in color, are still frequently rebroadcast today.
