In his letter "Patris Corde," to mark the recent Year of St. Joseph (2021), Pope Francis calls us to an ever greater knowledge and love of Joseph, imitation of his virtues, and confidence in his powerful intercession.
"Saint Joseph: Reflections on a Father's Heart" takes up that invitation with a contemplative exploration of Joseph, traditionally known as "the shadow of the eternal Father."
Sr. Mary McCormack, OCD, delves deeply into the Gospels to focus on the human face of this great man of faith, while Fr. Joseph F. Chorpenning, OSFS, explores the main themes of "Patris Corde" and "the rich, though often overlooked, history of devotion to St. Joseph, " especially the figures of St. Teresa of Avila and St. Francis de Sales.
