Good News #205 02142026: Fulton Sheen Beatified? Deacon Al on Miracles, Lent & Free Will · Catholic Spirit Radio

• 0:00
  Welcome to Good News on Catholic Spirit Radio, a program for teens and almost
• 0:04
  teens to better understand that the gospel of Jesus Christ is relevant in their
• 0:09
  lives, and it's a place where your questions about faith and religion can be answered.
• 0:13
  And now, here's your host, Deacon Al.
• 0:17
  Good evening, and welcome to Good News on Catholic Spirit Radio.
• 0:21
  I am Deacon Al Lundy, a permanent deacon of the Peoria Diocese.
• 0:25
  Thrilled to be with you. I just found out from John not too long ago,
• 0:30
  I think we have passed the 200th mark of good news programming.
• 0:35
  I think we've got over 200 shows recorded now.
• 0:38
  You can listen to them by going to our website at catholicspiritradio.org and
• 0:44
  go to the podcast tab and you'll find all kinds of programs there that we do
• 0:51
  on Catholic Spirit Radio, all of our local programs.
• 0:54
  And you can listen to all my past shows.
• 0:57
  And you're welcome to do that. So, I hope you enjoy them.
• 1:00
  So, we're here every Saturday and Sunday from 8 to 8.30 with good news.
• 1:05
  We talk about the gospel of Jesus Christ.
• 1:07
  We go over the readings from the weekend's Mass, give a little personal reflection
• 1:11
  on them, also talk about things going on in the church.
• 1:15
  I want to do a quick follow-up, just a brief one.
• 1:18
  A few weeks ago, maybe a month ago, I mentioned that one of the news outlets from the Vatican said,
• 1:25
  get ready, they're about to beatify Bishop Fulton Sheen, and that's about to
• 1:31
  be announced, but it hadn't been announced yet.
• 1:33
  The Vatican hadn't officially announced it. The Peoria Diocese had not officially announced it.
• 1:39
  Good news, it's now official.
• 1:42
  We have heard from the Vatican, we have heard from our Bishop Tilke that Fulton J.
• 1:48
  Sheen, the venerable Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen is now going to be beatified.
• 1:53
  It has been approved by the Vatican,
• 1:56
  and that will happen sometime in the future. We don't know when yet.
• 2:00
  The date hasn't been set, but we're all anxious for that to happen.
• 2:05
  Sheen is not only a part of the national history of the Catholic Church,
• 2:11
  but part of the history of American society.
• 2:16
  His programming on the radio and television have touched millions of people,
• 2:22
  Catholic and non-Catholic alike.
• 2:24
  An extremely heroic man, as far as heroic virtue, did marvelous things for evangelization,
• 2:32
  not only here, but throughout the world.
• 2:34
  And if you haven't read his books, please do.
• 2:37
  His Life of Christ is the book. The Life of Christ is just.
• 2:43
  Practically poetry. It's so beautiful to read. He's got many,
• 2:47
  many other books out there.
• 2:48
  His writings on the Virgin Mary are just gorgeous, just so gorgeous.
• 2:54
  His writings against communism, his shows, he did several of his television
• 2:59
  programs speak about the dangers of communism.
• 3:02
  Go back on YouTube now and watch those shows.
• 3:05
  This man was so prophetic, so prophetic, and what he said was going to happen
• 3:11
  to this country if we allowed communism to grow.
• 3:14
  And we've seen it now come to fruition.
• 3:17
  And he warned us, and we're still not listening to those warnings.
• 3:21
  And he was just right on the money with that.
• 3:25
  So congratulations to Fulton J.
• 3:29
  Sheen in your heavenly homeland now. We're so proud of you.
• 3:33
  We're so excited about your beatification, which now means there is regional
• 3:38
  veneration is allowed, not yet
• 3:41
  universal adoration, that veneration that doesn't come until sainthood.
• 3:46
  So what's between him and sainthood? A miracle.
• 3:49
  We need one more miracle. We have one, a local one, as it turns out,
• 3:53
  a young boy who literally brought back to life, and doctors have no explanation
• 3:59
  for it, without any damage.
• 4:01
  I mean, And he was brain dead for, I forget how long, an hour, over an hour.
• 4:09
  And came back to life through prayers to Fulton J. Sheen.
• 4:15
  And I think his middle name, his first name is Fulton.
• 4:18
  So I think he was named after Fulton Sheen. So it's a wonderful story.
• 4:24
  You can find it anywhere.
• 4:25
  Just Google it and you'll find it. You can also find it in print through the
• 4:31
  Peoria Diocese and through the Fulton J. Sheen Foundation.
• 4:34
  It's a wonderful story. I wish I could repeat all the details,
• 4:37
  but at 70 years old, I'm lucky I remember my address.
• 4:41
  But it's a beautiful story, and it's worth reading. So we're waiting for a second miracle.
• 4:47
  So please, if you're praying for someone and you need something miraculous in
• 4:52
  their lives, ask for the intercession of Fulton J. Sheen. It cannot hurt.
• 4:56
  All prayer helps. God, of course, hears all prayer.
• 5:00
  Sheen is very special, especially if you're here in the Midwest.
• 5:04
  Sheen should be a special person in our lives. So we've got that going.
• 5:09
  Very exciting. We have Valentine's Day this weekend.
• 5:11
  Hopefully you were very good to your Valentine, and hopefully you're good to
• 5:15
  your Valentine every day.
• 5:16
  You don't wait for just one day a year to let someone know that you love them.
• 5:21
  It's good to tell people that you love every day that you love them because
• 5:25
  you don't know when that last day will be.
• 5:28
  And you certainly don't want to let an opportunity go by.
• 5:33
  So let's be sure and do that. We have what else coming up? Oh, Lent.
• 5:38
  Lent begins next week. Ash Wednesday is in a few days.
• 5:43
  And we'll be talking more about that in the second half of the program.
• 5:47
  But I just wanted to remind you, Mass this weekend, you still have your Sunday obligation.
• 5:53
  Ash Wednesday is not a holy day of obligation, but it certainly should be a
• 5:58
  day that you attend Mass.
• 6:00
  Get your Ashes, even if you're not Catholic. This is a sacramental.
• 6:04
  This is something that brings you closer to Christ by helping you focus on our
• 6:12
  relationship with Christ.
• 6:13
  And you don't have to be Catholic to do that.
• 6:16
  So, we often see non-Catholics at the Mass on Ash Wednesday,
• 6:23
  as well as on Palm Sunday.
• 6:25
  And that's fine. We've got enough palms for everybody. We've got enough ashes for everybody.
• 6:30
  It's a good time as Lent kicks off to review your relationship with God.
• 6:36
  And again, we'll talk about that some more in just a few minutes.
• 6:41
  With Lent comes a lot of extra activities.
• 6:45
  And I want to mention, one, I'm sure the Knights of Columbus in your area—.
• 6:50
  Are having fish fries throughout Lent, probably starting the Friday after Ash
• 6:55
  Wednesday and probably all the Fridays through Lent because meat,
• 6:59
  of course, we're abstaining from meat on Fridays.
• 7:02
  And so the Knights of Columbus have a fairly common tradition of putting on
• 7:06
  fish fries, as do Catholic grade schools have a tendency to do that.
• 7:11
  So if you want to know where to find fish fries and their cost and who's hosting,
• 7:17
  go to Catholic Spirit Radio and look at their events calendar.
• 7:22
  Look at the community calendar there. You'll find all kinds of places you can
• 7:26
  go within our listening area, which covers like four diocese.
• 7:30
  And you can find out just where to go to enjoy a really nice meal and enjoy
• 7:36
  the company of good Christian people as we go down this Lenten journey together.
• 7:42
  And let's talk about the rules for Lent. So we have days of fasting.
• 7:46
  We have days of abstaining.
• 7:49
  And we abstained from meats on Friday.
• 7:53
  And some people say, well, that's not biblical. Well, no, it's not. That's okay.
• 7:58
  We don't do it because it's biblical. We do it because it's a good thing to do.
• 8:02
  You know, before we abstained from meats, do you have any idea what we used
• 8:07
  to have to abstain from? Dairy products.
• 8:10
  In the early church, it wasn't abstaining from meats because there wasn't a lot of meat.
• 8:14
  There was a lot of fish, a lot of veggies, and cattle.
• 8:20
  So you had to abstain from anything, any dairy products, milk,
• 8:26
  cheese, cream, anything made with those things you had to abstain from.
• 8:32
  And that wasn't just on the Fridays of Lent.
• 8:35
  That was every Friday. I remember as a kid, you abstained from meat every Friday of the year.
• 8:42
  And what really shocks some Catholics today is they have forgotten that when
• 8:48
  they made it Meatless Friday for Lent.
• 8:52
  That they didn't get rid of meatless Fridays completely. What they said was,
• 8:57
  and you could find this in the Catechism, that we should abstain from something every Friday,
• 9:05
  especially during Lent.
• 9:07
  But Friday, it's a good idea, as
• 9:11
  we get prepared to go into Saturday the Sabbath, Sunday, the Lord's Day,
• 9:18
  to start preparing ourselves to start thinking about Christ as the center of our lives.
• 9:24
  And that's really what the abstaining from meat is about.
• 9:29
  It's about taking something small, but something that's a part of pretty much
• 9:35
  our daily life, and setting it aside, and rather than thinking about it, think about Christ.
• 9:41
  It's a way of centering ourselves for a Christ-like life.
• 9:45
  And it's a small change. It's not do this every day. The church is saying,
• 9:50
  take one day, let's take Friday.
• 9:52
  And it doesn't have to be meat. You could...
• 9:56
  Put the TV remote away for one day.
• 10:00
  You could put your phone down, perhaps, for a day.
• 10:05
  You could turn off the computer, stay away from Facebook, abstain from something in your life.
• 10:12
  Take something and say, you know what, just for today, rather than think about
• 10:17
  Facebook or X or I'm going to think about Jesus today.
• 10:23
  How hard would that be? And that's all Christ asks of us.
• 10:28
  When you think about what he gave up for us, this is a small sacrifice.
• 10:33
  This is a very small sacrifice. And yeah, it's not biblical in that Christ doesn't
• 10:39
  say, I want you to stop eating this for a day or give up this for a day.
• 10:43
  What he says is be Christ-like.
• 10:45
  And Christ was sacrificial.
• 10:47
  We need to learn to be sacrificial. And that's what Lent's all about.
• 10:52
  Stop making yourself, ourselves, the center of our lives and make others the
• 10:59
  center of our life, make Christ the center of our life.
• 11:01
  So fasting, prayer, and alms, alms doing something, some good act for another
• 11:10
  is a way of drawing ourselves into being more Christ-like.
• 11:15
  So you're going to fast on Ash Wednesday, Good Friday.
• 11:20
  You're going to abstain from meats on Friday. And that's if you're 16 to 60.
• 11:26
  For medical reasons, there's a cutoff date. Now.
• 11:31
  I'm 70, I don't have to fast, but I can, so I do.
• 11:36
  I don't have to abstain, but I can, so I do.
• 11:40
  But if for medical reasons, health reasons, you can't, that's okay. Pick something else.
• 11:47
  Choose something that you're going to sacrifice for the good of Christ.
• 11:53
  We're going to pause for just a couple minutes when we come back.
• 11:56
  We're going to look at the readings from this Sunday's Mass and have a little
• 12:01
  more reflection about Lent and Ash Wednesday.
• 12:05
  We'll be back to more good news right after this.
• 12:08
  Stay tuned. Good news will be right back on Catholic Spirit Radio.
• 12:13
  Discernment of Spirits. It's time to register for the next Bible study at Catholic Spirit Radio.
• 12:19
  Many times it's difficult to relate to our great saints and their spiritual
• 12:23
  life, But one aspect of our journey that all of us can relate to is the changes
• 12:28
  in disposition of the heart as we grow in holiness.
• 12:32
  These stirrings of the heart affect our thoughts and thus our faith.
• 12:35
  In this 16-episode study, Father Timothy Gallagher journeys with us as we learn
• 12:41
  about and develop practical methods for the St. Ignatius' Rules of Discernment.
• 12:46
  Join us at Catholic Spirit Radio in Normal, Illinois, or via Zoom for our next
• 12:51
  Bible study starting Thursday, February 19th at 6.30 p.m.
• 12:56
  Registration is required. Call or text Tony at 309-750-9062 or email perio2000 at frontier.com.
• 13:11
  Even though we're healthy, the wife's been after me to sit with her and create
• 13:14
  our will. Mike, I just don't know where to begin.
• 13:17
  Marty, preparing a will is a loving and responsible thing to do.
• 13:21
  It's not as big of a task as you might think.
• 13:23
  Why do you say that? We finalized our will last month online using My Catholic Will.
• 13:28
  It was easy using the free gift found on Catholic Spirit Radio website.
• 13:32
  In about 30 minutes, My Catholic Will guided us in establishing guardians for
• 13:38
  our kids, ensuring a proper Catholic funeral, and making sure that our assets
• 13:43
  are directed at the people and organizations we care about. That sounds like a great idea.
• 13:47
  Did you say My Catholic Will is free? Yep, free.
• 13:51
  Plus, you complete it right at home. My wife's going to love that.
• 13:54
  Don't delay. Go to mycatholicwill.com right slash Catholic Spirit Radio. Thanks, Mike.

• 14:08
  Thank you.
• 14:16
  Welcome back to Good News. I'm Deacon Al Lundy. If you have a question about
• 14:20
  Catholicism or Christianity in general.
• 14:23
  And you'd like to have it answered here on the air, I invite you to send an
• 14:28
  email to us at goodnews at catholicspiritradio.org.
• 14:32
  I'm sorry, catholicspiritradio.com for the email.
• 14:37
  Is it org? I tell you, I got to talk to John. He keeps telling me something
• 14:40
  different. Good news at catholicspiritradio.org, and we'll be glad to answer
• 14:47
  your questions on the air.
• 14:49
  This Sunday is the sixth Sunday and final Sunday of Ordinary Time before we enter into Lent.
• 14:55
  And then after Easter, we'll pick back up with the seventh Sunday of Ordinary
• 15:01
  Time as we start counting our way towards Advent and Christmas.
• 15:05
  So that's why it's called Ordinary, not because it's run-of-the-mill or usual.
• 15:09
  It's ordinary because we're counting, and we're counting towards the major feast days.
• 15:13
  So, our first reading will be from the book of Sirach.
• 15:18
  Our second reading is Paul to the Corinthians, and our gospel is from Matthew
• 15:23
  because we're in cycle A of the gospel readings of the three cycles.
• 15:28
  So, from the book of Sirach, he
• 15:32
  writes, If you choose, you can keep the commandments. They will save you.
• 15:37
  If you trust in God, you too shall live.
• 15:40
  He has set before you fire and water. To whichever you choose,
• 15:45
  stretch forth your hand.
• 15:47
  Before man are life and death, good and evil. Whichever he chooses shall be given to him.
• 15:56
  Immense is the wisdom of the Lord. He is mighty in power and all-seeing.
• 16:00
  The eyes of God are on those who fear Him.
• 16:03
  He understands man's every deed.
• 16:06
  No one does He command to act unjustly. To none does He give license to sin.
• 16:13
  The word of the Lord. Such an important reading.
• 16:16
  And it's unfortunate that in the Protestant Bibles, you will not find this.
• 16:22
  This is one of the books that was not in the Maserotic texts.
• 16:29
  And so, our Protestant brothers and sisters don't study this lesson. And this is important.
• 16:34
  This is the book of the Old Testament that reveals to us the free will that
• 16:40
  God has given to man. We choose good and evil. We choose heaven or hell.
• 16:46
  God doesn't force us to love Him. He doesn't force us to disobey Him.
• 16:50
  He created us in the hopes of a relationship.
• 16:54
  He created us out of love because He loves us and He wants us to choose to love Him.
• 17:02
  Fire and water, heaven and hell.
• 17:04
  And we tend to blame God for our mistakes. And our mistakes are our own. They're our choices.
• 17:12
  And so this is an important book to understand of, an important scripture to
• 17:18
  study and really pray over and think about because everything in this world is a choice.
• 17:25
  You choose good or choose evil.
• 17:27
  Somebody says, well, what if somebody forces you to do something evil?
• 17:31
  They can't. You can't be forced to do evil.
• 17:35
  Well, somebody straps a bomb to me and tells me to go into the bank to rob it.
• 17:41
  You don't have to go. Just because they strap the bomb to you,
• 17:44
  you can choose to let the bomb go off.
• 17:47
  I mean, what's the worst thing that can happen to you? You'll end up in heaven with a loving God. Okay.
• 17:53
  What's the worst that can happen? Somebody can use you for evil.
• 17:57
  Someone tells you gossip about another person. You don't have to tell anybody
• 18:01
  else that gossip. You can choose to just be quiet.
• 18:05
  You can choose to say, you know what?
• 18:07
  That's just gossip. I'm not going to listen to it. You can choose to walk away.
• 18:11
  That person might not want to be your friend anymore. So what?
• 18:16
  There's other people with better character that you could choose to be friends with.
• 18:21
  And that's what God is trying to tell us through Sirach.
• 18:25
  Everything we do is done by choice.
• 18:29
  Think of all the times you've heard somebody say, well, God's going to send
• 18:33
  that person to hell. No, he's not.
• 18:35
  God doesn't want that. If God wanted that, he would have sent Christ to punish
• 18:39
  us rather than to cure us, to heal us, to draw us closer.
• 18:45
  God wants us to be with him. We are created to be with him.
• 18:48
  Adam and Eve were created to live daily in a personal relationship with God,
• 18:53
  and they could have continued to do that had they not chosen to turn their backs on God and sin.
• 18:59
  We're the same way. We choose our future.
• 19:03
  We choose to be people of faith or people of disobedience. It's our choice.
• 19:09
  And Lent is a great time to really consider that.
• 19:13
  Our second reading is from Paul to the Corinthians. And Paul writes,
• 19:16
  Brothers and sisters, we speak a wisdom to those who are mature,
• 19:20
  not a wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age who are passing away.
• 19:25
  Rather, we speak God's wisdom, mysterious, hidden, which God predetermined before
• 19:31
  the ages for our glory, and which none of the rulers of this age knew.
• 19:36
  For if they had known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
• 19:41
  But as it is written, what eye has not seen and ear has not heard,
• 19:45
  and what has not entered the human heart, what God has prepared for those who love Him.
• 19:50
  This God has revealed to us through
• 19:53
  the Spirit, for the Spirit scrutinizes everything, even the depths of God.
• 19:58
  God doesn't predetermine our choices, but God knows our choices because God
• 20:02
  is all-wise, all-knowing, and He welcomes those who follow Him.
• 20:09
  And this is something that a lot of people, a lot of the leaders of the Jewish
• 20:15
  culture at that time didn't understand, even though the prophets had warned
• 20:19
  them of this, and our leaders today still don't get it.
• 20:23
  Just us, just the lay people, just the everyday people of the church,
• 20:29
  of the community, some still have a problem understanding this.
• 20:33
  And yet it's laid out very clearly before us.
• 20:37
  What God has in mind for us, you can't even imagine.
• 20:40
  Can you think of, I'm sure you can't, can you remember when you were a baby in the womb?
• 20:47
  You had no idea what was waiting for you.
• 20:50
  Even if you had some knowledge of floating there in the dark, right?
• 20:57
  Just sitting in mom's womb, you can hear sounds. You don't know what those sounds
• 21:01
  are coming from, but you couldn't imagine what the outside world would look
• 21:04
  like. and then you're born and suddenly, oh my gosh, look at the colors,
• 21:09
  listen to the music, listen to the voices, look at all the movement.
• 21:12
  You had no idea as a child in the womb what you were waiting for.
• 21:17
  We have no idea what the next life is going to be like. You cannot imagine it. You can't.
• 21:23
  It's going to be so different. Jesus tells us what the eye has seen and the
• 21:29
  ear has heard, it's completely different. You cannot imagine this.
• 21:33
  And yet God has created us for this purpose.
• 21:37
  But we're back to our first reading now. You have to choose it.
• 21:41
  You have to be willing to reject evil and focus on good and accept the good
• 21:50
  for any of this to be yours.
• 21:53
  Our gospel is from Matthew.
• 21:56
  Matthew writes, Jesus said to his disciples, do not think that I've come to
• 22:00
  abolish the law or the prophets.
• 22:02
  I've not come to abolish, but to fulfill.
• 22:06
  Think about that. Amen, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away,
• 22:10
  not the smallest letter or the smallest part of a letter will pass from the
• 22:14
  law, until all things have taken place.
• 22:17
  Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches
• 22:21
  others to do so will be called least in the kingdom of heaven.
• 22:25
  But whoever obeys and teaches these commandments will be called greatest in the kingdom of heaven.
• 22:31
  I tell you, unless your righteousness surpasses that of the scribes and Pharisees,
• 22:36
  you will not enter the kingdom of heaven.
• 22:39
  You have heard it said that it was said to your ancestors, you shall not kill,
• 22:44
  and whoever kills will be liable to judgment.
• 22:46
  But I say to you, whoever is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment.
• 22:51
  And whoever says to his brother, Raka, will be answerable to the Sanhedrin,
• 22:56
  and whoever says you fool will be liable to fiery Gehenna.
• 23:01
  Therefore, if you bring your gift to the altar, and there recall that your brother
• 23:04
  has anything against you, leave your gift there at the altar and go first to
• 23:09
  be reconciled with your brother.
• 23:11
  Then come and offer your gift.
• 23:14
  Settle with your opponent quickly while on the way to court.
• 23:17
  Otherwise, your opponent will hand you over to the judge, and the judge will
• 23:21
  hand you over to the guard, and you will be thrown into prison.
• 23:25
  Amen, I say to you, you will not be released until you have paid the last penny.
• 23:31
  You've heard that it was said, you shall not commit adultery,
• 23:35
  but I say to you, everyone who looks at a woman with lust has already committed
• 23:39
  adultery with her in his heart.
• 23:41
  If your right eye causes you sin, tear it out and throw it away.
• 23:46
  It's better for you to lose one of your members than to have your whole body thrown into Gehenna.
• 23:52
  And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away.
• 23:56
  It's better for you to lose one of your members than to have your whole body go into Gehenna.
• 24:02
  It's also said whoever divorces his wife must give her a bill of divorce.
• 24:05
  But I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, unless the marriage is unlawful,
• 24:10
  causes her to commit adultery.
• 24:13
  And whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.
• 24:17
  Again, you've heard it said to your ancestors, do not take a false oath,
• 24:21
  but make good to the Lord all that you vow.
• 24:24
  But I say to you, do not swear at all, not by heaven, for it is God's throne,
• 24:29
  not by earth, for it's his footstool, not by Jerusalem, for it's the city of the great king.
• 24:35
  Do not swear by your head, for you cannot make a single hair white or black.
• 24:40
  Let your yes mean yes and your no mean no.
• 24:44
  Anything more is from the evil one. The Gospel of the Lord.
• 24:49
  Jesus is walking us through the understanding that it's not just what we do that brings us to sin.
• 24:57
  It's our state of mind. It's what we want to do. It's our desires. It's our thoughts.
• 25:03
  If you desire to harm someone, you've already harmed them.
• 25:07
  If you desire to cheat on your spouse, you've already cheated in your heart.
• 25:12
  It was Jimmy Carter, right? I have lusted in my heart.
• 25:19
  Yeah that's he was right he was right to apologize for
• 25:22
  that that's that's sinful when you think you want
• 25:24
  to do something wrong you've already done something wrong so
• 25:29
  this is again this is about choice this all comes back to free will god wants
• 25:35
  you and gives you the freedom to choose what's good but he doesn't stop you
• 25:40
  from doing the evil he cautions you not to do it but he leaves it up to your free will.
• 25:46
  As we enter Lent for the next 40 days, as you prepare for the passion,
• 25:51
  the death, and the resurrection of Christ.
• 25:54
  Ask yourself each day, what is my choice going to be today?
• 25:59
  And I urge you to choose to be Christ-like, to choose the path that leads you
• 26:06
  to heaven rather than the path that leads you elsewhere.
• 26:09
  Smoking and non-smoking, those are the two choices, and Lent's the time to make that decision.
• 26:14
  We'll talk more about that again next week and the week after and the week after
• 26:18
  as we work our way through the Lenten season and into Easter.
• 26:22
  Until then, may Almighty God bless you, protect you from all evil,
• 26:25
  and bring you to everlasting life.
