We are full swing into the year of Saint Joseph as declared by Pope Francis. This week I welcome Father Boniface Hicks to discuss his fantastic new book on Saint Joseph, Through the Heart of Saint Joseph. We take a look at various aspects of Saint Joseph and how we can apply them to our lives. Get your copy here.

About our drink:

Benriach 10

The flagship expression from the Benriach distillery. This 10 year old Speyside single malt is drawn from ex-bourbon and ex-sherry casks after at least a decade of slumber, resulting in a malt that shows off the distillery’s style wonderfully. Expect hearty barley backed up by orchard fruit and toasted almond, alongside just a hint of herbaceous oak.

About our gear:

The Dangerous Book for Boys

In this digital age, there is still a place for knots, skimming stones and stories of incredible courage. This book recaptures Sunday afternoons, stimulates curiosity, and makes for great father-son activities. The brothers Conn and Hal have put together a wonderful collection of all things that make being young or young at heart fun—building go-carts and electromagnets, identifying insects and spiders, and flying the world’s best paper airplanes.

Skills covered include:

• The Greatest Paper Airplane in the World
