If you’ve ever found yourself spiraling after watching a news video,this episode of The Patrick Madrid Show is your spiritual guidance.

 

 

Be Watchful, Not Paranoid

 

Patrick and Producer Cyrus explore what it means to discern the signs of the times without falling off the deep end into anxiety or conspiracy theories. Yes, we live in crazy times. Yes, there are real threats. Yes, AI can deepfake the Pope now. But that doesn't mean we need to panic. 

 

Don’t Believe Everything You See on the Internet 

 

Patrick talks about how we're bombarded with fakes and frauds, especially on social media. Be discerning. Check your sources. Here’s how:

 

-Go to Vatican News for real updates from the Church 

 

-Stick with trusted Catholic sources like Relevant Radio

 

-Don’t share shocking news until you’ve verified it

 

 

How to Not Freak Out When the World Is Burning (Spiritually Speaking)

 

Cyrus reminds us:

 

“Go to confession. Get right with God.”

 

That’s the spiritual equivalent of taking out insurance and installing a fire alarm. If you’re in a state of grace, you’ve got nothing to fear. 

 

This world isn’t our home. Like St. Teresa of Ávila said:

 

“All things are passing. God never changes.”

 

If you’re still worried? Just remember Padre Pio’s quote:

 

“Pray, hope, and don’t worry.”

 

 

Don’t believe every headline or deepfake

 

-Stay smart: check sources, especially on Church news

 

-Be ready: Go to Confession, receive the Eucharist, stay rooted in Christ

 

-Remember who wins in the end (Jesus)

 

Pray hard, scroll wisely, and keep your soul squeaky clean. We’ve got work to do, but we’re not doing it alone. Stay faithful, not fearful.
