Summary

Patrick answers calls that touch real lives and offers advice to a father converting to Catholicism as he wrestles with family opposition, discusses heated opinions on parish fees for funerals and sacraments, and weighs in against a controversial spiritual book. He shares a glimpse of his own family joy, remembers a beloved listener, and never lets any conversation sit quietly as every topic receives direct attention. Listeners come for clarity, community, and the unpredictable twists that Patrick’s perspective brings.

 

  • Edward - I am not yet Catholic, and I am attending a nondenominational church. My wife doesn't want to become a Catholic. What can I do? Is it wrong for me to go to a Catholic Church? (00:30)
  • Rocco - Are perpetual Masses gathered at one time, or do you have to say them one at a time? (17:46)
  • Cynthia (email) – Outrageous Church fees
  • Maria - I have no objection to Parishes assessing fees. (26:12)
  • Therese - What is the “Poem of the Man God” by Maria Valtorta? Are these good or approved writings? (36:02)
  • Bob - I have a good friend, Brother John, part of the Irish Catholic Brothers passed away in January. Patrick Madrid was a really important part of his life. I just want to thank you! (43:09)
  • Danielle - I thought the fee at the parish was reasonable and honorable. (46:04)
  • Jessica - I work for a parish and used to be bookkeeper. I had to call a widow about a bounced check. I still feel off about it. (47:46)
