    Advent is a time of preparation and repentance, and it turns out that Joseph’s story has a few things to teach about those very things.

    Joseph…the husband of Mary. The Bible doesn’t really tell us that much about Joseph. Legend has it that he was an elderly widow. Supposedly that explains why he was able to honor Mary’s virginity during the first months of their marriage and why he quietly disappears from the narrative sometime ...read more
