Patrick takes listeners into the effects of modern loneliness and emotional manipulation, revealing how social media preys on suggestibility and deepens isolation. He offers practical wisdom to Grace, a concerned mother, wrestling with her daughter’s interfaith relationship, while also reflecting on personal stories and near-death accounts that blur the line between supernatural encounters and ordinary life. Conversation flows from raw parental anxiety to spiritual wake-up calls, never shying away from uncomfortable questions or the hidden costs of everyday choices.
