On Wednesday, January 7th, 2026, Pope Leo XIV called upon Catholics to reread documents of the Second Vatican Council, saying, "After the Jubilee Year, during which we focused on the mysteries of the life of Jesus, we will begin a new cycle of catechesis which will be dedicated to Vatican Council II and a rereading of its Documents. It is a valuable opportunity to rediscover the beauty and the importance of this ecclesial event."

Answering this call, Word on Fire has made this four-part course by Dr. Richard DeClue on “Dei Verbum” available for free to any and all who wish to read and learn from this important Dogmatic Constitution on Divine Revelation from Vatican II.

Today, on the feast of St. Joseph, we reflect this litany created by St. Bartolo Longo, a convert, apostle of the Rosary, and a man whose life reveals the power of devotion and spiritual renewal.

Born in 1841 in Italy, Bartolo Longo drifted far from the faith in his youth, even becoming involved in satanic practices. Through grace and the guidance of faithful friends, he returned to the Church with deep repentance and a renewed desire to dedicate his life entirely to God. His conversion was not superficial. It was total, marked by prayer, penance, and a longing to repair what had been lost.

Bartolo became a Third Order Dominican and devoted himself to spreading the Rosary, eventually founding the Shrine of Our Lady of Pompeii. Yet his spirituality was also deeply rooted in devotion to St. Joseph, whom he saw as a powerful protector against evil and a model of hidden strength. In reflecting on St. Joseph’s life, Bartolo recognized that it was not outward power that defeated darkness, but quiet holiness lived with fidelity.

This insight is captured in his striking litany, which proclaims that the virtues of St. Joseph strike fear into the forces of evil. Not through violence or display, but through fatherhood, humility, charity, poverty, purity, obedience, silence, suffering, prayer, even his very name and hidden life. Each virtue reflects a soul fully aligned with God’s will, and therefore a threat to anything opposed to it.

St. Bartolo Longo reminds us that sanctity is the strongest weapon against darkness. His devotion to St. Joseph teaches that the quiet virtues, often overlooked by the world, carry immense spiritual power. In a life rooted in prayer and fidelity, even the smallest acts become a force for good.

St. Bartolo Longo, pray for us.
