Victory Over Vice

In Victory Over Vice (1939), Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen examines the seven last words of Christ during His Crucifixion, linking each utterance to one of the capital sins. Through this insightful analysis, he illustrates how Jesus’ responses reflect His purity and serve as a guide for overcoming these vices in our own lives. Sheen carefully distinguishes between acceptable behaviors and dangerous failings, offering a profound understanding of how we might emulate Christ and navigate moral challenges. This work encourages readers to learn from Christ’s example in order to confront their own struggles with sin.
