In this profound sermon, Fulton Sheen reflects on the resilience of the Church throughout history, surviving monumental crises every 500 years. From the fall of Rome and the Eastern Schism to the Protestant Reformation and now facing the challenges of modernity, Sheen declares that we are witnessing the end of Christendom as we know it.
Key Points:
Fall of Rome: The Church endured even as the great civilization of Rome collapsed.
Eastern Schism and Muslim Invasion: Despite losing many dioceses and facing invasions, the Church survived.
Protestant Reformation: A time when doctrine was reformed instead of morals, yet the Church persisted.
Modern Crisis: Sheen suggests that we are at the end of Christendom, facing challenges unlike any before.
Join Fulton Sheen as he offers insights into the endurance and ongoing mission of the Church through these historical cycles.
