Joseph is one of the greatest biblical mysteries. Who exactly was the spouse of Mary and earthly father of Jesus? A humble tradesman, Joseph descended from royalty. He was counseled by angels, chased into a strange land by murderers and devoted to a Son who would grow up to be called the King of Kings. And yet not one word of his is recorded in the Bible. Through interviews with leading theologians and priests, and with dramatic re-creations, JOSEPH: THE SILENT SAINT paints the clearest picture yet of the man who spoke with his actions and shaped the very foundations of Christianity.
