The Patrick Madrid Show: August 14, 2026 - Hour 3

Do yoga and sound bowl practices conflict with Catholic belief? How old was Adam when he entered the Garden of Eden? Does Mass on TV fulfills a Sunday obligation for the disabled? Emotional moments of grief, family estrangement, and memories of life during World War II all give Patrick opportunities to offer honest spiritual advice and personal reflections that blend doctrine, empathy, and sometimes humor. He offers practical tips for faith, sacraments, and the value of recording family stories and reminders to seek God and cherish the generations before us.   Ann – My hairdresser plays sound bowls and has yoga at her house. Should I continue to go to her house? (00:34) John - Do we know how old Adam was when he was placed in the Garden of Eden? (05:56) Jessica - A relative passed away and the family started hearing footsteps and the cousin said that a black cat was in her home out of nowhere. Could there be any meaning or connection to my relative who passed away? (06:27) Keith - Can a baptized non-Catholic receive the Anointing of the Sick or some other form of a healing blessing? (12:25) John - Is okay that I contact my dead wife's guardian angel? I am beside myself. (17:30) Lawrence - Can you point me to marriage prep online resources for those getting married outside the United States? (26:26) Shannon – When Jesus is depicted on the cross, he is wearing a loincloth. Where does that come from? I thought the Romans wouldn’t leave him with any dignity. (28:22) Judy - I have a 16-year-old who does not believe in heaven. She believes there is purgatory, but not heaven. How do I respond? (31:14) Don - I'm a disabled person and can't go to Church very frequently. You said attending mass via tv does not fulfill obligation. What is the point of having it on TV at all? (37:01)
