Summary
Patrick explores Catholic questions about Bible translations, the validity of non-Catholic baptisms, and Mass customs like kneeling and standing, all while engaging callers in real-time on sensitive topics from confession to Communion. He weaves listener stories and personal anecdotes into honest conversations about faith, sacramental traditions, and even the social pressures within church communities.
- Peggy (email) - At a Lutheran baptism, the pastor said "you are" baptized in the name of the Father. I think that the Lutheran form is supposed to be the same as Catholic. So, is that not valid, and can it be valid in an 'emergency' situation so that I can just baptize the baby myself to make it valid? (01:54)
- Laura in El Paso, TX - During mass, should I kneel after the Our Father? (04:51)
- Laura in Napa, CA - I teach at a school where we do TLM twice a month. Our students get confused by this. How can I explain what to do? (15:33)
- Michael (email) - Is it possible St. Peter’s wife was dead by the time Jesus called him?
- Buddy - Why does my local priest omit the Alleluia chorus, but on Sunday he doesn’t say it before the Gospel? Is this normal? (27:23)
- Andriana (email) – Is it a sin for Catholics to argue? (30:31)
- Anna - I have been a music minister for 60 years. Alleluia is to be sung. If it is not sung, it is permitted to omit it. (34:59)
- Jenny - I think you should go up for a blessing during Holy Communion. (42:42)
