Patrick responds to heartfelt listener questions about Catholic teaching, including faith and works, the fate of unbaptized infants, extraordinary medical care, and personal experiences at healing masses. His mix of scriptural insight, compassion, and candid conversation with Cyrus results in authentic exchanges, there’s compassion for the uncertain, clear explanations when doctrine feels confusing, and encouragement for those walking through grief or doubt. In the mix, Patrick reminds listeners that trust in God’s mercy and a practical approach to Catholic life matter as much as answers do.

• Joe – What is Eternal Life? Also, I don’t see why the Church would be against grandma baptizing the baby. (01:54)
• Colleen – Is laying on of hands, including in the Charismatic Renewal, ok? (11:32)
• Teri – I want to make a comment about being slain in the Spirit. I used to be so against it and only the Holy Spirit can take you. It was the most peace I ever felt. (17:58)
• Kevin – My dad was in a Catholic hospital. He asked the priest if he could receive the Anointing of the Sick. The priest said no because he was Episcopalian. Could I request Masses for my father? I found out he was conditionally baptized as a Catholic. (24:11)
• Rob – What is the Catholic understanding of works and grace? (36:04)
