The Patrick Madrid Show: June 18, 2026 - Hour 3

Patrick tackles family tension head-on, offering clear guidance for those wrestling with upholding faith amid modern complexities, especially when family gatherings or relationships clash with Catholic convictions. He shifts quickly between profound spiritual advice, stories of gift-giving, and raw conversations about estrangement, heartbreak, and faith’s enduring relevance in home life. Unfiltered and sincere, Patrick keeps the conversation immediate, rooting every insight in lived experience and sharp perspective.   John (email) - As Catholics who view same-sex relationships and cohabitation as contrary to Church teaching, should we attend a week-long family beach house reunion where those relatives will be present and sharing the rental, or is it right to decline to avoid tacitly supporting the behavior? (00:51) Sue - There is a website called Kids-in-mind that breaks down the stuff in movies that might be problematic. (08:34) Vicki - Can I give Holy Water as a party favor at the baptism party? (12:06) Conrad - My girlfriend and I are planning to get married, but she has to get an annulment because her ex-husband had to get all of his sacraments at one time to get married. Does that not make it illegitimate? (14:08) George - What is your favorite Psalm? (21:14) Jay - My goddaughter received her confirmation at 15 and I am wondering which gift to get her. (24:55) Nancy - What do you do when your adult child (40) says they want to cut off all contact? (28:15) Jean - My friend purchased a home where the previous tenant killed himself in the home. Do you have any advice for my friend? (37:19) Patrick reads and responds to emails
