Episode 130 — Bombs, Betrayal & Blasphemy: Iran, Holy Week & Our Bishops w/ Fr. James Mawdsley
Show notes
As the war in Iran escalates, disturbing reports emerge of a U.S. strike on a girls’ school—raising serious moral questions about modern warfare and the cost of empire. At the same time, the American bishops once again signal weakness, throwing Carrie Prejean Boller under the bus and deepening the crisis of leadership داخل the Church.
Fr. James Mawdsley joins us to break it all down—from geopolitical chaos to spiritual clarity. Who really killed Jesus Christ? What is the true meaning of Holy Week? And how should Catholics respond in a world that seems increasingly unhinged?
From Tehran to Calvary, this episode connects the madness of today with the eternal truths of the Faith.
