The Patrick Madrid Show: June 20, 2025 - Hour 2

Special Guest Host Cale hosts a lively episode full of unpredictable moments, wrestling with the ethics of prayer when someone flatly refuses it and exploring what makes a saint’s body truly incorrupt. Relics, eucharistic miracles, and real callers’ stories about faith, spiritual boundaries, and even witchcraft collide with his trademark wit and a candid peek behind Catholic traditions—plus a debate about shifting holy days that sparks unexpected laughs. Robert - A witch asked if she could pray for us to her sun god, and we said no. (03:05) Valerie - Regarding the man who wrote into The New York Times: It is not that he does not want her to prayer for him it’s that she is relentlessly reminding him that she is. She should continue but in silence. (06:58) Robert - I am a retired dialysis nurse. I ask my patients if they would like a Catholic prayer. When you build a relationship, they are usually willing and grateful. (12:24) Mike - Do you think that Catholics are misusing the word incorrupt? (18:02) Vonny - Instead of saying 'I'll pray for you', I think it’ better to say, 'I'll remember you in my prayers.’ (30:00) Jim - She was performing an act of charity. When someone gives you a gift, it would be wrong to turn it down. (30:58) Carol - What is the churches teaching on purchasing relics? I have heard that you can't sell them, but you can buy them. (33:09) Corpus Christi – The Body and Blood of Christ (38:21)
