The Patrick Madrid Show: July 21, 2022 - Hour 2

Patrick tackles the question of why we pray if God is all knowing, discusses the unchanging nature of God, talks about the final judgement and how it differs from when we die and answers whether you can have a valid marriage with out consummation.

• Roy - If God has no past or future. Why do we need to pray if God already knows what is going to happen? I just let go and let God.
• Nick - God's unchanging nature: we believe that God is unchanging, how, then, did God take on a human nature?
• Trip - I'm reading the Great Divorce. When people get to purgatory, they're having trouble letting go of things. Patrick, what do you think purgatory will be like?
• Email from Gwen – are people’s sins who have been confessed shown at the final judgment?
• Mark - I'm a lector - it said that God made Pharaoh obstinate. Did he have a free will?
• Michael - If a Catholic marries a non-Catholic outside the Church do they need an annulment?
• Cassandra - Me and my partner - We're going to Church, but he likes to hang out with his old friends. His friends don't have the same respect for family life. How do I handle this situation?
• Mary - I've been married for 30 years and have never consummated our marriage. Is it sinful to not consummate the marriage?
