Why is St. Joseph such a powerful model for Christians today? In this episode of Practicing Catholic, Taylor Kemp and Scott Hefelfinger reflect on the life and example of St. Joseph as husband, father, worker, and disciple. From his silent obedience in Scripture to his courageous leadership of the Holy Family, St. Joseph shows what it means to trust God’s providence—even in uncertainty.
The hosts share personal stories of devotion to St. Joseph, discuss how his example speaks especially to men, fathers, and workers, and explore the virtues that made him the guardian of Jesus and Mary. They also tackle questions about devotion to St. Joseph, superstition, and even why Catholics believe in purgatory.
Whether you're deepening your Lenten journey or looking for a stronger model of discipleship, this conversation invites you to rediscover the quiet but powerful witness of St. Joseph.
