The Patrick Madrid Show: June 11, 2026 - Hour 3

Patrick draws listeners into a vibrant stream of candid questions, from the frustration over workplace diversity’s focus on certain faiths to the thorny issues of predestination, marriage validity, and speculation about extraterrestrial life. Catholic doctrine spirals alongside practical insights as Patrick weighs both tradition and Scripture, offering listeners guidance for expressing concerns, understanding biblical teachings about wealth, and wrestling with theological puzzles. Spiritual growth and real-world dilemmas meet in moments of wit, surprise, and grounded advice.   Stephanie - At my work, an educational email about Ramadan and Lent was sent, but more info on Ramadan versus Lent.
