The Patrick Madrid Show: May 07, 2026 - Hour 3

Patrick talks about the everyday challenge of living within our means, sharing personal stories of financial pressure, faith, and family resilience while fielding questions about guardian angels, church teachings, and complicated marriage situations. The conversation moves from practical choices like saying no to luxuries to the comforting reminder that God provides even when the future feels uncertain. Throw in parent worries, the struggle for children’s faith, and moments of encouragement from saints and scripture, and Patrick blends struggle, hope, and candid advice in unpredictable, real-life Catholic conversations.
