The Mystical Body of Christ captures the theological precision and communicative genius of Fulton J. Sheen (1895–1979), whose radio and television broadcasts, including Life Is Worth Living, have reached millions of homes since the 1950s. With more than thirty of his works still in print, Sheen is one of the most beloved Catholic evangelists of all time. This full-length and fully developed work on the Church as an extension of the Incarnation reveals Sheen’s accessible and theologically astute teaching style in the early years of his ministry. First published in 1935, the book’s themes of the Eucharist as a source of unity for the Mystical Body of Christ—the Church—and the link between the liturgy and works of social justice were echoed in the Second Vatican Council several decades later.
Other than Christ himself, Sheen is the one that has influenced by faith the most, and it still continuing to do so.Sheen explains complex things in an almost poetic sense, he paints pictures with words that stay with you long after.I have read many many books of his, but this is one of his best. But I also must include a warning, this is not for a first time reader. Before you take this one read The Life of Christ so you can apply his teachings in an orderly manner.For we can't apply Algebra before we even learn the concept of numbers.This language is not difficult, but you can reap greater rewards is you have for than a rudimentary knowledge of Christ.This is a keeper for sure.
