The Patrick Madrid Show: October 05, 2022 - Hour 1

Patrick answers listener questions about the protestant reformation, if it’s okay not to say grace before a meal, communion services, and if the bible is mimicking older pagan stories. Virginia – I was not married in the Catholic Church, but because of your show I learned how important it is to be married in the Church. Thank you! Colleen - Was there any good that came from the protestant reformation that the Catholic Church was able to use? Patrick responds to an email asking, why do we say “Lord, be with you?” Patrick responds to an anonymous email from a man who got drunk and hit his wife. He thanks Patrick for reading his previous email and for Patrick’s advice. Patrick recommends the book “Dying for a Drink” and a Catholic organization called https://www.calixsociety.org/ Kaylee - If you are eating with people who don't pray before eating and you decide to not pray either, is that a sin? Patrick recommends the book, “Surprised by Truth” Carol – My adult daughter is in a play that is inappropriate. If we don't go, it will cause division in the family. What should we do? Alicia - How do you respond to someone who say they are Catholic but they are not in the Catholic Church? Ronny - Thank you for your positive outlook towards our Pope. Rosie - Are Communion Services a valid way to receive Jesus in the Eucharist? Sarah - What is your opinion on people saying the Bible is mimicking pagan stories? Gale - It does say in the bible that we should not add or remove anything from the Scriptures. How do we address this as Catholics?
