The Catholic Nerds have a special nerd-out session for the Feast of St. Joseph! We share newly discovered Biblical evidence on the age of St. Joseph - this comes from Dr. Brant Pitre's new series on St. Joseph, The Hidden King: The Jewish Roots of St. Joseph. PLUS, there's an extra bonus: Scott confirmed with Dr. Pitre a way to deepen this argument through Luke's background as a physician.

Not only that! We also cover Santo Anello, Mary and Joseph's wedding ring; the Holy House of Loreto; the Miraculous Staircase of Loretto; AND the anti-communist origins of St. Joseph the Worker!

Here is the full article from Scott's blog if you would like to follow along: Was St. Joseph an Old Man or a Young Man? How Old was St. Joseph When He Married Mary? The Bible Tells Us St. Joseph's Exact Age.

ANNOUNCEMENT: Co-Host Scott Smith is also about to be a Co-Author with Fr. Donald Calloway, author of the now world-famous, Consecration to St. Joseph. Together, Fr. Calloway and Scott have co-authored a Consecration to St. Joseph for Children and Families, which is due out this Summer!

The Catholic Nerds also dig into Mary and St. Joseph's wedding ring, Santo Annello. Here's the article on that if you would like to follow along: Mary and Joseph's Wedding Ring: Santo Anello and Blessed Anne Catherine Emmerich's Visions.

There's also a quick nerd-out about St. Joseph the Worker, which feast day is coming up, as well. Here's the article if you would like to "hammer" into this subject: St. Joseph, Hammer of Communists: The Anti-Communist Origins of the Feast of St. Joseph the Worker.
