Description: Saint Joseph the Hesychast was one of the greatest saints of the twentieth century. In this concise biography, readers will discover the life story of a man who achieved profound holiness and also changed the course of the Church. From his humble beginnings on the island of Paros, where he was born into a poor but devout home, to his eventual arrival as a young man on Mount Athos, where he lived in caves and huts and engaged in rigorous ascetic struggle, Elder Joseph lived a truly remarkable life. In addition to battling demons and experiencing amazing miracles, Elder Joseph created a brotherhood of disciples who benefited from his spiritual counsels and who would themselves go on to set up monasteries around the globe, bringing the wisdom and beauty of the Holy Mountain to the rest of the world.
