What is Holy Week, and why is it the most sacred time in the Catholic Church? In this episode, Curtis Mitch walks through the meaning of Holy Week—from Jesus’ triumphant entry on Palm Sunday to His Passion, death, and Resurrection on Easter Sunday.
Discover how each day—Holy Thursday, Good Friday, Holy Saturday, and the Easter Vigil—reveals the heart of the Gospel and invites us into the mystery of our salvation. Learn about the Triduum, the institution of the Eucharist, and how Catholics are called not only to remember Christ’s sacrifice but to take up their own cross in discipleship.
Whether you’re new to the faith or looking to enter more deeply into Lent and Easter, this episode will help you understand and live the most important week of the Christian year.
