Patrick brings listeners into a lively exchange of questions, challenges, and encouragement, blending practical advice and direct responses to common misconceptions about Catholic teaching. He tackles themes ranging from Mass attendance dilemmas and the nature of faith and justification, to distinctions between doctrine and discipline, all while using real-life examples and biblical references.

• Jackie - The previous caller was very rude and disrespectful to Patrick. (00:45)
• Nohl - Christ called for his disciples to fast. (02:51)
• Andrew - I was reading Council of Trent on justification. I’m confused by faith as a preparation for justification and baptism as act of justification. (07:25)
• Walter - Taco Tuesday
• Jo (email) - You were discussing DNA and recommended a book. Now I can't remember the name of the book, nor can I find the conversation in the archives. Please let me know the name of the book you recommended (15:19)
• Keaton (email) - I have a friend who is Roman Catholic and he said back at the start of 2025 his goal was to get to church more, and in 2026 he has been getting to weekly mass as much as he can. I am very proud of him for doing so, however I asked if he was going on Saturday or Sunday, he said it's almost impossible for him to make it. (21:32)
• Karen (email) - There are so many prayers, so many devotions, novenas, Liturgy of Hours, consecrations, lectio divina, contemplative prayer, and so forth--so many people telling us that "this" is the thing to do, the one to pray, etc. How can any one person fit them all in without feeling overwhelmed? (25:23)
• Karen - I don't understand why people who talk about sola scripture when Jesus was teaching and preaching orally. The New Testament was not written when He was alive. (30:51)
• Gail - A priest said if you can't make it on Sunday, you can pick a weekday as obligation (43:16)
• Julie - How do Protestants justify sola scriptura if they don't live by it. In the New Testament, how do we know what to obey or explicitly follow? (47:11)
