4 Reasons Satan Hates St. Joseph

About this episode

This episode discusses the four reasons Satan hates St. Joseph and the virtues that every Catholic man is called to build.

The Church calls Saint Joseph the Terror of Demons. A carpenter. A foster father. A man who speaks not a single word in Scripture. And hell is terrified of him. In this episode, John Heinen sits down with Devin Schadt, executive director of the Fathers of Saint Joseph, to unpack the four reasons Satan hates Saint Joseph. These are the virtues that send demons running. The same virtues every Catholic man is called to build. We discuss how being called a just man used to be the highest honor a man could receive, the importance of prompt obedience, confidence, and magnanimity, and silent sacrifice. Saint Joseph gives us the example and pattern to achieve this.
