The Patrick Madrid Show: December 12, 2025 - Hour 1

Patrick answers listener questions on the Holy Eucharist, grief, prayer after tragedy, and tough calls about family boundaries and school choices. He responds to inquiries about supporting Jewish people and addresses scriptural tension between Jesus’s rebukes and his love, weaving in Catholic teaching on keeping Sunday holy and the importance of inner healing.

• Angela - My friend's husband committed murder suicide. How can I pray through this? (12:15)
• Justin - As Christians, I know we are supposed to support our Jewish friends. Why are we called to support them if they don't even believe in Jesus? (18:27)

• Robert - When Jesus told the Pharisees that they were descendants of the devil has always bothered me. This seems to contradict what you are saying about being kind to Jews. (38:24)
