Summary
Patrick responds to calls about funeral rites, Catholic teaching on Mary, reverence in church, and the emotional struggles that follow loss. He connects the struggles of real people to faith, sometimes pausing to discuss moments from history, like the Saint Patrick's Battalion, other times pausing to comfort, or to unpack theological puzzles like how joy exists beside suffering in heaven.
