Patrick welcomes listeners into a cascade of honest conversations, fielding calls about temptation, virtue, and what it means to honor Catholic values during daily life’s toughest tests. He responds to real stories, from a caller’s brother leaving the faith for marriage, to fiery debates about pro-life representation in Catholic schools and Church leadership’s clarity, offering thoughtful book suggestions, clear Catholic teaching, and encouragement for deeper prayer and action. Angels, their hierarchy, and the invisible spiritual presence around each Mass come alive as Patrick brings theological insight and practical advice, guiding both skeptics and seekers toward deeper understanding.
- Patrick continues his conversation with Bob from the end of the last hour about lust and sex (00:45)
- Jeff - My brother left the faith to be with his wife. Should I drop this or try to persuade him still? (05:45)
- Liz - What does the hierarchy of angels look like? Do they all sing with us during the Gloria at Mass? (12:56)
- Alexis (email) - Regarding the email about the pro alphabet club but anti life club: do you think it possibly boils down to funding for the school? (24:14)
- Trip (email) - Why can’t the Pope fix these corrupt Catholic schools? (26:31)
- Brian - I have a coworker who says that the Catholics killed Christians who disagreed with the Church before Luther. (33:27)
- Janelle (email) - How do you feel about the concept of "spiritual friendship" (sometimes called "vowed friendship")? (38:03)
- Kathy - I do believe that many are leaving the Church because of all the LGBTQ stuff going on in our parishes. Strong leaders could have a large effect but they skirt the issues of this. I think you should be bolder about this. (41:50)
