The Patrick Madrid Show: October 01, 2025 - Hour 2

Patrick returns to the mic and responds to a series of heartfelt listener calls: Macy’s concerns about parenting in the Church amid public same-sex relationships, Nathan’s struggle between finishing an engineering degree or pursuing missionary work, Mary Ellen’s anxiety over confession, Diane’s questions about Catholic school policy for children of same-sex couples, and Sandra’s challenge explaining Mary’s Immaculate Conception to Protestants. He addresses these situations with a mix of honest counsel, humor, and direct references to Catholic teaching, offering both spiritual reassurance and practical advice. Through it all, Patrick’s warmth and clarity stir real engagement with issues of faith, family, and conscience.
