Fulton J. Sheen
Fulton J. Sheen (1895–1979) war ein US-amerikanischer römisch-katholischer Erzbischof, Philosoph und Pionier der christlichen Radio- und Fernsehverkündigung. Bekanntheit erlangte er vor allem durch Sendungen wie „Life Is Worth Living“, in denen er katholische Theologie mit psychologischen und gesellschaftskritischen Fragen verband. Bibellesern begegnet er heute als pointierter Vermittler christlicher Ethik, des Gebetslebens und traditioneller Glaubenslehre.
