Friday of the 4th Week of Lent

Today's readings explore the dangerous tension that arises when righteousness confronts wickedness. The first reading from Wisdom reveals the twisted reasoning of those who plot against the just person, while the Gospel shows Jesus facing similar hostility as he teaches openly in the temple. Listen for how both passages illuminate the cost of living faithfully in a world that often rejects God's truth. Today's Readings: • First Reading: Wisdom 2:1a, 12-22 • Responsorial Psalm: Psalm 34:17-18, 19-20, 21 and 23 • Gospel: John 7:1-2, 10, 25-30
