Holy Thursday begins the Sacred Triduum — the three holiest days of the year — and in this episode of The Southern Catholic Podcast, we reflect on the night of the Last Supper, when Jesus gave us the Eucharist, the priesthood, and the command to love one another through humble service.

We talk about why Holy Thursday is more than just a remembrance, how the Mass connects us to that night in the Upper Room, and what it means to live the Eucharist in everyday life — at home, at work, and in the ordinary moments where sacrifice and love are hardest.

This episode also includes a Southern Catholic Challenge of the Day to help you live Holy Thursday by practicing humility, gratitude, and real love for others.

On March 31st, the Church honors Saint Benjamin the Deacon, a courageous Christian who lived during the persecutions of the Persian Empire and remained faithful to Christ even under torture and death. In this episode of The Southern Catholic Podcast, we take a deeper historical look at Saint Benjamin’s life, the persecution of Christians in Persia, and what his witness teaches Catholics today about courage, truth, and perseverance.

We reflect on how modern believers can stay faithful in a world that often pressures us to compromise, and we offer a Southern Catholic Challenge of the Day to help you live with the same bold faith as Saint Benjamin.

Grab your coffee or sweet tea, and walk with one of the Church’s heroic martyrs. ✝️

Palm Sunday begins the most important week of the year for Christians — Holy Week.
In this episode of The Southern Catholic Podcast, we reflect on Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem, why the Church reads the Passion on Palm Sunday, and how the story of the waving palms and the Cross connects to everyday life in the South.

We talk about how faith isn’t just about what we say on Sunday, but how we live on at home, at work, with our family, and in the struggles nobody else sees.
