Patrick answers practical questions about Catholic marriage, restitution for old wrongs, and the real meaning of faith in tough times. He listens to callers voicing struggles with family choices and personal guilt, then offers down-to-earth Catholic wisdom. Moments of warmth surface when young Josie wonders if she should pray for her brother after a mishap, alongside heavier questions about supporting a spouse with ALS and grappling with faith under pressure.
- Jay (email) - In the traditional Catholic prayer before meals, why, do you suppose, is there no "thank you"? (00:31)
- Maureen - What happens when a Catholic marries a Jewish person? What kind of marriage is this considered? (01:25)
- Josh - What does the Church teach on restitution? (17:23)
- Juan - My wife is terminally ill with ALS. What do I say to her, when she says it is hard to believe and trust in God when she is in such a poor condition? Does doubt keep us from salvation? (27:50)
- Jose (7-years-old) - I hit my brother, what should I do? Should I forgive him and say sorry? Or should I pray for him? (38:11)
- Jean - I thought your response was perfect. I had MS diagnosed 20 years ago and didn’t have Catholic Radio. (42:13)
- Teresa (email) - My husband of 43 years, who is in his mid-60's, is having trouble with the very personal issue of ED. We are past child bearing years. Is it immoral for him to use ED medication? (48:10)
