But the Holy Family holds lessons for all of us about how to pray, how to trust in God and live in love. Catholic Review Editor Christopher Gunty talks with author Deacon Greg Kandra, writer of the popular Deacon’s Bench blog, about how Jesus, Mary and Joseph can inspire us, and how the sorrows of St. Joseph can teach us lessons for our own life.
