5 Virtues of St. Joseph to Imitate

Colin MacIver
Here are 5 virtues of St. Joseph that can we imitate to become better versions of ourselves.
  1. Righteous - Don't just follow rules, but commit to doing what is good.
  2. Protector - Look out for those who God has put in your care.
  3. Worker - Resist the temptation to cut corners, and do the work God has given.
  4. Chaste - Realize that the gift of self is greater than mere physicality.
  5. Terror of Demons - Strive toward holiness by cooperating with the grace given at Baptism. The forces of Hell will be scared.

Snippet from the Show:

“Joseph as the terror of demons...he speaks not a word and yet he terrifies demons.”
