The Patrick Madrid Show: May 26, 2026 - Hour 3

Patrick answers listener questions that range from handling miscarriage remains and finding comfort through faith-based memorials, to grappling with whether objective morality can exist apart from God, bringing Christian apologetics into sharp focus. He shifts to practical observations, highlighting a socialist mayor’s Starbucks boycott backfiring as investment flows elsewhere, the high cost of youth sports pressuring family life and Mass attendance, and muses on happiness with echoes from Jack La Lane. Scrutiny falls on aspects of Catholic ritual like baptismal exorcism prayers, the all-encompassing nature of the Holy Trinity in adoration, and why the Church treats Marian apparitions differently, with spiritual priorities threading through every exchange.
