Summary
Patrick highlights the importance of fasting with caller Paul, who discusses it with his reformed father-in-law. He explains how fasting serves as both a penitential act and a method to control bodily appetites, using Jesus’ 40-day fast as an example. Patrick also addresses the debate over Mark 9:29 and whether Jesus mentioned fasting alongside prayer.
- Gabriel - Is fasting for someone’s conversion a good reason to fast? In Mark 9:29, Jesus says that demons need to be driven out by prayer and fasting. How could they have done this in such a short time? (00:48)
- Nailyn (8-years-old) - Is it okay for me to celebrate Halloween as a Catholic? (07:18)
- Kathryn - I was reading the story of Leah and Rachel and was wondering when marriage became monogamous? (15:52)

- In 2003, Lego were just months from bankruptcy. Their sales were plummeting & they were $800 Million in debt. (28:23)
- Jerry – What does “Evil spirit in Heaven” mean in Ephesians 6? (41:44)
- Nanette - My husband and I evangelize the kids during Halloween by handing out a pamphlet about Halloween and a Holy Trader Card with a saint on it. (45:46)
