He has also completed Ph.D. units of credit in Catholic Moral Law and Ethics at Duquesne University.
Although books of private revelation do not need to receive approval from the Catholic church, Br. Joseph's book Proof of the Afterlife; The Conversation Continues, has received wide acclaim from leaders in the Catholic church including thank you notes from Archbishop Emeritus of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles, Cardinal Roger Mahony and Bishop Edward Clark as well as reviews from Monsigniors and Priests.

Recounting his near death experience in 2005 and the encounters that have continued weekly ever since, the book shares his message of hope and certainty that there is life after death--one filled with love.
Br. Joseph lives in Southern California where he serves a community of 80,000 + homeless. All proceeds from the sale of "Proof of the Afterlife 2" go to the Servants of the Father of Mercy homeless mission and the St. Joseph's Inn - a hotel conference center also offering at no charge a recuperation home for homeless individuals discharged from Southern California hospitals after surgery.
Out of the Mouths of Children Come Reviews You Can Trust!
On May 16, 2013 Br. Joseph spoke for two hours to St. Mary Magdalene's fourth grade class in Southern California. Because the kids were highly engaged, afterward, a teacher gifted each child a copy of the book. The children had much to say after reading their copies of "Proof of the Afterlife" . . .
