The Sabbath and The Sunday: A Jewish – Catholic Latino Journey Of Two Traditions | Ep. 339

In this episode, we sit down for a gentle and honest conversation with Joel and Teresa Backman about the quiet beauty found in the merging of two storied heritages: Judaism and Hispanic Catholicism. Beyond the surface-level differences, we explore the shared heartbeat of these two cultures—the deep devotion to family, the sacredness of a shared meal, and the resilience passed down through generations. We talk about what it looks like to build a life that honors both the Shabbat candles and the Sunday traditions, navigating the delicate balance of keeping two flames alive in one home. It is a story of compromise, deep respect, and the discovery that love doesn’t require choosing one path, but rather creating a new one together.
