Fulton Sheen explores the ongoing reality of the Incarnation, urging the audience to see it as a living event rather than a distant historical moment. He explains that the Incarnation began when the Virgin Mary consented to give God a human nature, uniting divinity and humanity in Christ. Through this union, Christ became the ultimate prophet, king, and priest, teaching divine truth, governing creation, and sanctifying humanity through his sacrifice. Sheen emphasizes that Christ’s mission didn’t end with his earthly life—it continues through those who dedicate their lives to him. Just as Mary said “yes” to God, priests, religious, and laypeople are called to offer their nature to Christ for his work in the world.

Sheen highlights how the Incarnation transforms those who embrace it, granting them identity and purpose. He challenges priests, religious, and laity to align themselves with Christ so completely that they lose their attachment to worldly values and become true instruments of God. This deep union with Christ allows his truth and sanctity to shine through them, whether in teaching, leadership, or personal holiness. Sheen warns that modern society’s crisis of identity stems from rejecting divine boundaries and norms. He argues that embracing Christ restores identity and frees individuals from the slavery of sin and self-centeredness.

In conclusion, Sheen underscores the importance of flexibility and availability to God’s will. He compares the human soul to a pencil in God’s hand—only when fully surrendered can it write his message in the world. The world is desperate for other Christs, and Sheen calls his audience to be those living witnesses. By meditating on Scripture, deepening their prayer life, and embracing their unique roles in Christ’s mission, the faithful can bring the living Incarnation to a world that yearns for divine love and purpose.
