A Man Named Joseph: Guardian for Our Times

After spending more than a millennium in obscurity, St. Joseph has become the second most-mentioned saint in the papal magisterium, after the Virgin Mary. To discover the life and importance of Saint Joseph, we need to start with the first papal title attributed to him: "Patron of the Universal Church": "Patron de l'Église universelle".

What does St. Joseph have to offer the Church - and each and every one of us - today? This is the question that A Man Named Joseph: Guardian for Our Times attempts to answer. To answer it, author, podcaster and blogger Joe Heschmeyer sifts through many of our misconceptions to see what the Bible and early Christians really say about Joseph as a model husband, father and saint. Questions at the end of each chapter help guide personal reflection and group discussion.
