Patrick opens this hour reflecting on faith through listeners’ mysterious visions, questions about Church practices, and the subtle challenges of returning to Catholic life. He moves between thoughtful advice on confirmation age and respectful handling of cremation, then jumps to lighter moments like the age-old debate over pew etiquette. Everyday stories, unexpected spiritual encounters, and nuanced Church teachings all blend together in his lively, sincere style.

Patrick continues his conversation with Doug from the end of the last hour. Doug had some disturbing visions. He’s asking Patrick if he should talk to a priest about this troubling experience. (02:33)
