St. Joseph.
He must have been a very special guy for God to trust him to raise His own son.
I like how unobtrusive he was. You sorta hear about him around the nativity, but he does his duty, then he kind of fades into the background. He definitely wasn't a limelight-hog like a lot of Christians I know.
And to believe a woman who comes to you telling you that God Himself impregnated her??? How much faith must that have taken? But he seemed to have enough faith to believe the angel in his dream, who tells him it is true. In my faithless ignorance, I'd have brushed it off as only a dream. God, give me 1/2 that man's strength and faith!

The Apostle John because of his writing.
I most identify with the Samaritan woman at the well, for obvious reasosn.
I'd most like to meet Paul so I could tell him a thing or two about people.

The holly Mary. The mother of Jesus.

John the Baptist who spoke loudly and publically of the evils of Herod's court. No fear and just a bit on the wild side.

Peter because he was completely fallible and made somewhat stupid mistakes. But in the end, he became a great man of faith. I can only hope to stand so strong one day. I've proven the fallibility thing.

I like John the Baptist because he was all about obeying God and calling the people to repent and be baptized.

I think maybe Paul. Paul was a convert like me.

I'm going with Andrew. He was a quiet guy, led lots of people to Christ by his actions, not his words.

epaphras (hence my screen name)
He is credited with starting and supporting the church in collasae and surrounding. His faith astounds me.

Peter. He was spontaneous and a bit ADD like me.
