Patrick opens with a moving letter about a daughter’s struggle with scrupulosity and the positive, faith-filled impact that Relevant Radio had on her life. He fields questions ranging from fasting rules and confession logistics for the elderly, to the story of Abraham and Isaac, and addresses misconceptions about sacred images with sharp biblical insight.
