A Quiet Hero in the Christmas Story - Audio

Today I am calling Joseph the quiet hero in the story. According to Websters Dictionary a hero is a person of exceptional quality who wins admiration for noble deeds, especially deeds of courage. While that is a modern day definition, I think hero today is more often applied to a deed of courage, isn't it, and whether or not they are a person of exceptional quality is really not the focus. Joseph is the whole hero package. We do not see or hear a lot about Joseph in the text, but what we see is profound.
