My Dad a convert emulated Saint Joseph in everything he did. He was always grateful to the Catholic church for giving him so much including knowledge of Saint Joseph to emulate. I'd say he was a very successful..if not always silent..Knight for his beloved wife and eight kids!
Dr. Hahn... your speaking voice is so pleasant and comforting. Please record books. Merry Christmas
He has audio books available :)
Joy to the World is a wonderful book. Scott Hahn draws from Holy Scriptures & the writings of the Early Fathers to enhance our understanding of & appreciation for the Christmas story.
Christ is Born! Glorify Him!☦️
Thank you Dr. Hahn for this book. I read this book last year. I check every verses which St. Joseph appearing, that's true, he never mention a single word. Silent Knight, Holy Knight.
Dear Holy Family please pray for Us All 🙏
Viva Cristo Rey 🙏
St Joseph as the silent Father to the God the son, our Lord Jesus as a reflection of the mystery of God the Father. Very powerful words that we can use for reflections that I am sure will bring abundant spiritual benefits!
Thanks Dr Hahn, one of the great modern day St Thomas!
The ceeativity of Dr Hahn to call Joseph the Silent Knight is so full of message that I can think of.
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas, dear, I saw the blessings, but the spiritual attack persisted on them, in prayer, I saw a woman in the spiritual realm monitoring and conspiracy to delay your life, mirror with evil, and destruction with motivation. But when I say to you, now her time is up, to reach out to favor with whatever you can afford or give to this motherless foundation (Ghana Disabilities Orphanage Foundation Germany2 days before, When I rise my hands to heaven and pray for you, they will serve as a point of contact, no matter where you are, you will receive a double grace, a breakthrough of outstanding and complete recovery in your life and your family Life. Ask them for their account information and help them call the MD in charge of the orphanage to get their detailed information (WhatsApp them now + video call +4915210305857) and tell him I will send you. Because the Lord said, it’s not relying on Strength is not by power, but by spirit (Zechariah 4:6). You have to witness the glory of God in your life. God bless you....
Dear Friend Dr. Scott, You are such a gift and God chose the best to teach us crazy cradle Catholic’s. Now we know so much and realize there is bazillions more to know. You have a special place in Heaven. And in our hearts! God bless you. You are an inspiration. Christ is the answer. And so thankful that St. Joseph is getting attention now too! 🎄🌟😊🙏✝️Thank you.
Amen
For years I did not understand St Joseph’s role this well.
Thank you Dr Hahn.
Merry Christmas and happy St Joseph year to everyone.
Thank you for a great meditation fo;r the day!
Wonderful 🙌
Silence is the first language of God,
God works is in Silence.
My spiritual view about St. Joseph;
St. Joseph - father = Carpenter - Architect = *CREATION*
Silent night ... Silent Knight 🙌
Merry Christmas! God bless! 💓
God bless you, Dr. Hahn and family! This year of more prayers, and 5 years praying in Father Gobbi’s book MSM, Virgin Mary showed me Saint Joseph, and in every payer, Saint Joseph shows me Mary and Jesus!!! After the JOSARY on March 19th this year, my eyes have been opened to the Silent Knight!!! My appreciation and prayers, Dr. Hahn. 🇧🇷
Joseph: Silent Knight, Saint So Stong;
Protecting Light from a World of Wrong.
Beautifully written dr. Scott Hahn thank you for the teaching of salvation history, your book is an awesome gift. Peace
This man should never be edited! Thank you so much Dr. Hahn!
I always took St. Joseph for granted. He was the foster-father of Jesus and that was it. Three years ago while I was going through my late Mom's (who was a devotee of St. Joseph) belongings I cam across her old tattered novena for the saint. I pored through it and boy oh boy did it change my heart to see the greatness there was in Jesus' earthly father. I have since become a devotee and and thank you Dr. Hahn for bringing to our attention how the SIlent Knight has this profound influence on the church and on all of us by his actions.
You are a blessing to the CHURCH Scott! The new St Paul of the Church!
Thank you Dr. Hahn,

Merry Christmas !
Great one! Thanks Scott!
Merry Christmas to you and your family Doctor Hahn!
Amen
2020 is the best year i ever know of.
Did not the Holy Spirit reach into the heart of Pope Francis? What an awesome year coming! I love you, St. Joseph! Merry Christmas to all!
He was not silent, He spoke the first public pronouncement of the Name above all names, the Name that begins and ends all exorcisms, and underpins His exorcist title "Terror of Demons" for the sound of St Joseph's voice reached the height of Heaven, and depths of Hell. What made this pronouncement supra-powerful was it came at the price of the first spillage of the Precious Blood, at the Circumcision of that truly Holy Flesh. That privileged Royal chaste Heart preserved in Heaven, willed to voice that Name in the Mind of God the Father, spoken via the Angel Gabriel, internalised in the Immaculate Heart: JESUS
♥️♥️♥️
One more thing? What happens when families do not get this? They are divided. How can we teach this family love to divided angry families? 🥲
Ite ad Ioseph!

-St. Joseph
St. Joseph is the very model of what Jesus explains to us as "...But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing," (Matthew 6 : 3) and "... But whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you." (Matthew 6 : 6); for St. Joseph is the 'silent guardian' of the Holy Family, his role was one of the greatest and also the humblest.
💓💓💓🕎💓✡💓🕎💓Amen
Saint Joseph is also a human incarnation of the Holy Spirit. Both are bridegrooms of the Virgin Mary...
Scott the Silent!! 😂

The similitude of Jesus before Allah is as that of Adam
There is only One Holy Father (John 17:11) and neither Francis nor any other pope is him. Christ alone is the head of the church (Eph. 1:22; 4:15; 5:23; Col. 1:18, 2:10). The New Testament does not teach the doctrine of the papacy, since the church is built on Peter’s confession of Christ as the Son of God, Christ is said to be the Rock, and Peter refers to himself as an elder and apostle among equals (Matt. 7:24, 16:16-18, 1 Cor. 10:4, 1 Peter 2:6-8, 5:1; Eph. 2:20; 2 Peter 3:2). Jesus said “you must be born again” (John 3:7).
Protestantism’s is a self refuting false religion that is man-made.
It is self refuting because there are thousands and thousands of different denominations including a denomination known as non-denominational. The Bible is against fragmentation of Christianity. None of these denominations agree on even the need for baptism as a means of salvation
It is false because like Islam it denies Jesus in the Eucharist.
It is man-made because every protestant denominationHas a man or a girl which started their religion. This is documented by history.
The Catholic Church is the one true church. The papacy is established by Christ but one has to be smart enough to see it in the Bible. Sadly you’re not one of those people
So what is your title on your kids' birth certificates?
@@philiplouis702 The RCC is the exact opposite of what is expected of Christians.
This is the religion of Lucifer. Self righteous creatures who create laws for themselves which God didn't make. They think they will look holier by making hard laws which people can't obey. Then they will say with pride that they do this and that. Lucifer fell because of pride.
RCC didnt start until 300 AD with Constantine. The first 300 years after Christ ascended up to heaven...was the worst persecution of Christians...mostly by Nero and Domitian, fed to lions, put on crosses and torched them at night. Rome had to change tactics after 300 AD because every time they slaughtered Christians...more people became Christians...it backfired on them...they had no other choice but to combine Paganism with Christianity. And when they had calmed the Christians down, invited them in, then they flipped the script and started killing anyone who tried to leave their new system. Same thing that the RCC is today.
All the nations have drunk the wine of the passion of her immorality. The kings of the earth were immoral with her, and the merchants of the earth have grown wealthy from the extravagance of her luxury.” Then I heard another voice from heaven say: “Come out of her, My people, so that you will not share in her sins or contract any of her plagues. For her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.…I will pray for all of you.
Wesley Simelane --you’re totally deceived. Here’s proof- protestantism Began 500 years ago, a new novel religious theory started by Luther, a morbidly obese addicted obsessive compulsive chronically constipated Heretic who came up with his theory of salvation by faith alone which you adhere to while sitting on his toilet.- very appropriate
There are now thousands and thousands of Protestant denominations all claiming to be truthful yet can’t even agree on the salvific nature of baptism.
Your church was started by a man or possibly a girl which is against the Bible anyway.
Historically you are incorrect. The Catholic Church is documented to be the apostolic church, tracing itselfback to Christ and the apostles.
By attackingChrist church and denying Jesus’s divinity in John chapter 6 you align yourself up with Muslims who also deny Christ and attack his church.
Read John6:66- that’s YOU. SAD!
@@philiplouis702 Philip, NO! I have no use for Martin Luther, a sinner like me who has no bearing whatsoever on my salvation, or anyone's for that matter. The RCC has introduced many false doctrines within the word of God and presented them as factual truths under the guise of "traditions". For one thing, learned Roman Catholics realize that the Scripture does not give them any basis for substantiating their claims. In fact, as we have seen, a close examination of the Scripture will demonstrate that their claims have no basis whatsoever. The Roman Church contends that while the Scriptures are true and authoritative, they are incomplete. This is why we must look elsewhere to answer these fundamental questions. Consequently, they deny the idea of the sufficiency of Scripture in favor of teachings of men. If we are to accept the RCC catechisms, what's stopping us into looking at Ellen G White's teachings as factual truths or the mormon bible or JW's teachings. Additions of men, even if called "traditions", if they do not align with the word of God, instead of drawing us closer to God, they lead us astray and take us away from the Love of God
