Maria’s marriage is teetering under the weight of her husband’s drug use, secrecy, and abuse, and she’s torn about whether to alert authorities or the church. Listeners weigh in, sharing wisdom about shame, forgiveness, and hope, while Patrick threads hard questions—parental fear, legal complications, marital fidelity—into a conversation that refuses to flinch.
- Maria - My husband is using drugs and stealing. Do I need to do something legally? (00:54)
- Susan - My daughter is expecting a baby and about to be engaged. How do we deal with this? (18:38)
- Sandra - This really touches me because I was in a similar situation. I hope she will focus on the sacrament of Confession and believe and live it. Let it go, and celebrate the new life. (30:02)
- Chris - It is reprehensible that ICE is going on Church property. If they do that they need a warrant. Otherwise, this is a 4th Amendment violation. (38:19)
- Sarah - How long should someone hold onto shame after confession? (42:18)
- David - I think we need to stop interchangeably using the words 'sin' and 'mistake'. (46:10)
