The Patrick Madrid Show: August 28, 2026 - Hour 1

View descriptionShare
 

Patrick takes listener questions on everything from cremation and relics to the practicalities of annulments and maintaining gratitude within parish life, all while weaving in scriptural roots and clear, approachable Catholic teaching. He answers with straightforward advice for handling marriage complexities, faith discussions with non-Catholic family, and screening media for kids, offering his own reflections as a practicing Catholic. Plentiful encouragement and real-life examples flow throughout, with the conversation shifting swiftly from doctrine to day-to-day encouragement and resources.

 

  • William (email) - Would the Church have a mass for the deceased if they knew the ashes we not going to be interned but spread out somewhere? (00:59)
  • Jim (email) - As a resident of Massachusetts and a member of Massachusetts Citizens for Life I want to thank you for standing up for the unborn, especially in light of the recent legislation passed in the Commonwealth. Thank you for speaking so clearly and directly about the barbaric and unthinkable act of ending the life of a fully developed unborn baby. You courageously shed light on the gravity and magnitude these actions have on those perpetrating them including Governor Healey. I pray she listens to your show, but wouldn't count on it. Maybe one day! (02:30)
  • Angela (email) - Listener responses unfairly implied the woman wanted recognition for her generous gift rather than a simple thank-you for an act of kindness, a courtesy priests should model and that I, too, have been denied.
  • Miriam (email) - 1. I believe you've previously said that there will be food in heaven. But will we get hungry? I assume we won't, but if we don't, will the food taste as good to us as it would if we were ravenous?  2. Christ was a Jew. But at any point in time did He become a Christian? And if so, when? And if not, why not?
  • Rodney - What Scripture supports spreading saints body parts around as relics? (11:46)
  • Antoinette - They are building a Mormon Church adjacent to my backyard. Can I put a Relevant Radio banner on my fence. Would this be a good idea? (19:37)
  • Margie - I was married in the Church, got divorced and did not get an annulment. My second husband passed. Priest said I didn't need annulment. Is this true? (23:50)
  • Tom - My wife was married outside of the Church. Do we need an annulment? (26:52)
  • Kevin (email) – What is a good resource for screening kids’ books through a Catholic lens? (38:23)
  • Molly - Can we pray the Rosary and make our own mysteries up? Is that a sin? (41:46)
  • Lucas - I went through the annulment process last year and wanted to encourage people that it is worth it. (43:41)
