The Holy Family as a 'Double Trinity'

In this episode, Dr. Greg and Fr. Colin Lomnitzer dive into the real St. Joseph—the man who quietly shaped Jesus' courage, work, identity, and tenderness far more than most people realize. For anyone wrestling with father wounds, questions about masculinity, or mission, this conversation offers a powerful and healing perspective.

Key Topics:

• The surprising ways Joseph reverses generations of wounded fatherhood stretching from Adam to Abraham
• The invitation to let Joseph father you where your own story carries hurt, fear, or mistrust
• Why Jesus needed a real mother and a real father—and what that means for your own healing
• The hidden "reparenting" offered through baptism and why Mary and Joseph matter for your emotional life
• The overlooked link between Joseph's example and how Jesus treated women in the Gospels
• Why the Church may be recovering a deeper understanding of Joseph right when the world needs fathers most
