To understand the life and importance of Saint Joseph, a good place to start is with the first papal title ever granted him: “Patron of the Universal Church.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat is it that Saint Joseph has to offer the Church — and each one of us — today? That’s the question that A Man Named Joseph: Guardian for Our Times seeks to answer. To get there, author, podcaster, and blogger Joe Heschmeyer cuts through a lot of our misconceptions to see what the Bible and the earliest 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhatever we may be facing in life, we can go to Joseph for his example, his protection, and his prayers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eABOUT THE AUTHOR\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJoe Heschmeyer is a staff apologist with Catholic Answers, a lay apostolate that defends and explains the Catholic faith.
