The Patrick Madrid Show: July 21, 2025 - Hour 2

Patrick fields listener questions ranging from whether a child conceived through IVF can be baptized to when righteous anger is justified, drawing deeply on Catholic teaching and scripture. He unpacks the nuances of salvation, clarifies misunderstandings about purgatory, and listens to callers wrestling with heavy choices, including grave illness and faith’s demands. Moments of empathy, debate, and practical advice land side by side, as Patrick guides callers through the messiness of real Catholic life.

• Priest told my friend that because her daughter was conceived through IVF that she can't be baptized. Is this true? (00:38)
• Robert - Women are not permitted in combat and so a new draft would face new legal issues because the rule has changed. (04:21)
• Art - Bishop Fulton Sheen: When I was a young boy, my mother used to watch his show. I think that was the Holy Spirit. I think the devil tries to smear holy men and women. (07:26)
• April - How is it that Jesus lost His temper? (09:09)
• Enrique - In order to be off birth control, the doctor advised my sister to get her tubes tied. She doesn’t know what to do and any advice you can give will be much appreciated. (18:29)
• Salvador - Is it ok for a sick person to say no to a treatment if he wants to die? (22:21)
• Henry - I need the quintessential Patrick answer. If God is all- forgiving, does that mean everyone is going to heaven? (34:48)
• Judy - The listener who is sick should go to palliative care first and they will guide him to the next step. There is hope for him. (48:30)
