The Patrick Madrid Show: September 19, 2024 – Hour 2

Patrick clarifies the essential distinction between divine and private revelation. Divine revelation—God’s word through the Bible and apostolic tradition—is mandatory for all Catholics. Private revelation, like the apparitions at Fatima, is personal and not required for belief, though church-approved apparitions hold great value. Remember, while pilgrimages can be enriching, your faith doesn’t hinge on visiting such places.
