Saint Joseph A Silence that Speaks Volumes

He never said a word that was quoted in Sacred Scripture and, to the best of our knowledge, never made any attempt to draw attention to himself. If salvation history was "downstage center," he lurked somewhere in the wings backstage. Yet St. Joseph, in his quiet, silent, humble way, has proven himself to be one of the most important men ever to walk the earth. How strange that it's taken the world the better part of 2000 years to recognize this truth. This is the story of Joseph, the foster father of Jesus - from being ignored by the early Church to being misrepresented as a doddering old fool to being named Patron of the Universal Church. "St. Joseph: A Silence That Speaks Volumes" traces the evolving perception of a man whose own humility camouflaged his grandeur for entirely too many centuries - until now.
