It's Ask a Priest this hour. If you have a question you'd like to ask a Catholic priest, as long as it's not like something that should be saved for the confessional, you're welcome to call 888-3187-884. That probably would make for an interesting show, but we can't do it. So if you've got a question for a Catholic priest, though, whether you're Catholic or not, you don't have to be Catholic to call.

Father Matthew Spencer, our guest, is willing to talk to anybody.

He'll just talk to anybody.

And I can tell you, we talked about the Holy Family last hour.

I bet one member of the Holy Family is going to get extra attention this hour, and that's because

Father Matthew Spencer is the provincial of the

oblets of St. Joseph. Father Matthew Spencer, thank you for being here with us.

Sy, thank you for having me. Always a pleasure. You look good, by the way. You look sharp.

20-25's off to a good start for you, I think. Well, thank you very much. I'm trying to detect,

is this sincere, or is he messing with me? Maybe a little bit of both. Okay, all right. I'm sorry

that my suspicion immediately went up, but we don't, I don't have the video of you right now,

so I can't engage in that banter with you. But, all right, so you're an oblet of St. Joseph.

So we just did an hour on the Holy Family.

I'm going to let you take all the calls that come, but I want to ask you a question that we

didn't get to about the Holy Family.

Was St. Joseph, should we call him Father, Jesus' father, or stepfather, or foster father?

How do you, an obelite of St. Joseph, refer to Joseph?

I tend to turn to our Blessed Mother and say, how did Mary identify St. Joseph's relationship

to Jesus?
