Summary
Patrick answers questions with raw honesty, moving between callers wrestling with forgiveness, the Eucharist, and predestination, while keeping faith close to lived experience. Listeners open up about shaky relationships and spiritual setbacks, and Patrick responds with clarity that’s sometimes gentle, sometimes blunt, always anchored in Catholic teaching.
- Chad (email) - I was raised protestant but had no faith whatsoever in my adulthood until a year or so ago. I'm trying to get clarification on Catholic teaching on predestination. I've heard the word "the elect" meaning those chosen by God to go to heaven. I have also heard that God doesn't want anyone "not anyone" to go to hell. So, isn't the whole world "the elect?" (01:37)
- Andrew (email) - How would you help someone who has lost faith in Jesus due to tragic circumstances in their lives? (05:06)
- Barb - Do any Protestants have the authority to consecrate the Eucharist? (15:03)
- Nick - Can you explain more about predestination? Can you expound on working out salvation? (17:10)
- Vince - Protestants accuse us of worshipping Mary. How can I explain Mary and devotion to her? How can a mere human be a mother of all on the earth? (22:09)
- Chris (email) - Would God make a soul just to damn them to hell? (27:59)
- Danny - I have been interested in the priesthood. Can you give me some guidance? (32:58)
- Troy - What is the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation? (43:54)
