Saint Joseph - The Inner Life - November 11, 2024

The Inner Life

Father Matthew Spencer joins Patrick to discuss Saint Joseph

• (3:35) why is Saint Joseph the patron of the oblates of Saint Joseph?
• Tom - I love St. Joseph. He came to me recently. I am very grateful to him for nearly saving my life. I want his help everyday.
• (16:54) Christine - When I was 5 years old, we had a nativity set that was cardboard. My father put the old one in the fire and the only thing that didn't burn was St. Joseph. We had a devotion to him because of what happened to him.

(20:08) Break 1

• What is the connection between Saint Joseph of the Old Testament and the New Testament?
• (24:55) Irene - Husband would pray to St. Joseph. When he was dying, I was praying the litany while he was receiving viaticum and passed at St. Joseph.
• Philip - A friend was selling his house. Asked me to pray for sale of home. He had taken a blessed statue and buried it. I got on his case about it. I said, 'Let's dust him off and put him in the house.' We did and he sold the house. We need to honor him.
• (32:28) Glen - I fell in love with St. Joseph. He got me thinking and family members got me rekindled to St. Joseph. Had pornography addiction and prayers to him kept me away from it for years now.

(37:33) Break 2

• 11:41 Sheryl - When my son was accepted to Notre Dame, we were excited, but unsure if we could afford it. He ended up getting a merit scholarship. Notre Dame is in St. Joseph County and the school is on St. Joseph Street.
• What can Saint Joseph teach us about masculinity?
• (43:45) Kathleen - He's helped me so much. I've always called on him. I'm 72, and in my 20's I prayed for children. Had 9. I said a novena for my daughter to find a job and on the 10th day, she got the job.
• What can Saint Joseph teach us about the sanctity of work?
