Summary
Patrick opens the year with spirited banter and candid exchanges, guiding listeners through faith questions on baptism, confession, and Protestant-Catholic differences, while drawing from scripture and tradition. He chats with callers wrestling with addiction and moral challenges, supporting them with clear Catholic teaching and reflecting on personal stories, prayer, and the rosary’s transformative effects. The episode weaves together heartfelt testimonies, practical advice, and even a splash of music trivia.
- Patrick continues his conversation with Mark from the end of the last hour who is asking what are the differences between Catholics and Christians? (00:32)
- Niki - You gave me advice last year and I am happy to share that my family is coming into the Church! (15:30)
- Jason – I have been able to stop my porn addiction. It helps to identify the triggers that cause the temptation and try to fill the time with something else. (22:56)
- Sharon - I am in a 12-step program, and I work on replacing something bad with something good. Whenever I feel tempted, I go to Adoration. (32:28)
- JD - About watching porn, one of the things that helped me immensely was praying the Rosary. Praying to your guardian angel to eliminate those images from your memory also helps. (37:00)
- Yvonne - My family prays a novena. Should pray for the same thing as I did for last year, or pray for something else this year since God already knows about my other intentions? (39:34)
- Rose - Is it wrong for parents to circumcise their infants. Also, I know IVF is immoral, but is it moral to adopt embryos? (43:45)
