The Patrick Madrid Show: March 23, 2026 - Hour 3

Drawing from scripture and Church tradition, Patrick opens with candid talk about the Eucharist after a caller asks how to address family who reject its significance. Listeners present questions about Communion, business ethics as a Catholic, and differences between rites, prompting Patrick to respond with quick stories, direct advice, and a reminder that true reasons for leaving the Church often lurk beneath the surface. Conversations stumble across pain, urgency, misunderstanding, and encouragement, as Patrick keeps the focus on honest dialogue and patient listening.   Matthew - Can you clarify Leviticus 17 in regard to John 6 about the Real Presence in the Eucharist?
