The Patrick Madrid Show: July 22, 2025 - Hour 2

Patrick wrestles with the tough question of why intentionally skipping Sunday Mass lands with the same seriousness as much graver sins, drawing thoughtful exchanges from listeners like Kate in Milwaukee, who struggles to see the fairness, and Maria Christina, who sees the Church’s call as a reminder to put God first. He pulls from lived experience, Scripture, and honest caller questions, building a conversation that challenges, unsettles, and reassures all at once. The hour brims with debate, vulnerability, and moments that unsettle certainty, never shying away from discomfort or hope.   Patrick continues his answer to Michelle’s question from the end of the last hour: How is someone who doesn't go to Church still capable of doing good works? (01:27) Kate - A lot of people have a problem of making a moral equivalent of missing Mass with murder or fornication. (09:40) Alicia - I am so thankful for your gift of patience. (22:53) David - I want to thank Patrick for having Kate speak. I think she was right. (32:16) Maria Christina - There is no comparison with what Jesus is asking us to do. (38:31) Bernadette - It is a sin against the 1st and 3rd Commandment (41:24)
