Patrick welcomes listeners with questions about Catholic marriage, sacraments, belief, and the nature of God, responding directly to concerns about Communion, Church law, and what happens after death. A caller’s uncertainty about receiving the Eucharist or fears about eternal separation draws Patrick into discussions on canon law, spiritual purification, and God’s mercy; another listener’s curiosity about Jesus calling people “gods” sparks a biblical explanation tangled with a look at Mormon teaching. Wonder appears with questions about who made God, or the purpose behind suffering, and Patrick considers reason, faith, and the simple realities of human limitation, drawing from scripture and practical examples with warmth and openness.

• Elena – For a very long time I could not find proof of my Baptism so I could start Catechism classes. I found it. Do I need to get married through the Catholic Church. Will I go to hell?
• Ed – Will God put a person outside of human time so that prayers that are said for person will make a difference. Is this true? (11:31)
• Sean – The Bible reading says that ‘you are gods’. How is it that human beings are gods? (21:42)
• Nancy – I am not a believer of any kind. How does a rational person believe that God created the earth by speaking? (28:31)
• Jorge – I’m not a bad sinner. When I die, will I go to purgatory? (39:17)
• Jonathan – What are the 7 Dolors of Mary? (46:19)
