Archbishop Fulton Sheen on a game show! How cool! Who can we say is a man today who is similar to Sheen? I wish I knew.

Go ahead, find out what I think of myself
- Laurinda
- Austin, Texas, United States
- Does anyone really know how to define themselves? I have trouble telling you what I think you need to know about me. I am in my late twenties and working on my PhD in chemistry (I want to teach). I am very involved in my church and have lots of amazing friends. I can't get enough of either of those. I love my family dearly and as much as I love living in Austin I am homesick every day for them and wish I could be with them at all times. I have found the Love of my life and I look forward to every second, minute, hour, day, month, and year that I get to spend with him. We are getting married on August 7th 2010 and it is rapidly approaching! My hobbies include yoga, knitting/crocheting, cooking, reading and surfing the internet.

In my opinion the closest we have to bishop Fulton J. Sheen today would be Fr. John Corapi.
I agree with what James said about Fr. Corapi. He's no Bishop Sheen but he's the closest thing we have IMO. Great blog Laurinda, I see you have a wealth of Fulton Sheen videos. Btw, I split my Mass attendance between St. Louis and St. Mary's Cathedral. =)
Thanks James and Amanda! I need to look into more of Father Caropi's work. I will admit that my first opinion is that he is a bit harsh and more of hellfire and brimstone preacher and that was a big turn-off to me a few years ago. I need to revisit his writings and his television show to see if I understand him better now that my faith is stronger. My parents love him as do several friends so I know that I could benefit from his preachings.
Amanda, you should stop me and say hello if you ever come to 9:30 Mass at St. Louis! Just look for the curly, dark haired girl with the handsome, Irish-bearded man and that is me! We tend to hang out in the gathering space before and after Mass. I hope you both continue to visit my blog, it is a work in progress. I appreciate the comments!
If you haven't heard it already you could start with his conversion story. It is available free on DVD.
