The Patrick Madrid Show: November 21, 2025 - Hour 2

Patrick opens the phones to questions about faith, baptism, and what truly defines the Catholic Church, moving from heartfelt concerns about re-baptism to passionate exchanges with skeptics like Rich, who challenges Jesus’s divinity and the origins of Catholic belief. He fields queries on confession and rituals, all while offering sharp insights, scriptural responses, and the occasional smile when listeners push back or disagree. Calls range from bewildered to bold, and Patrick doesn’t shy away from the tough stuff as he meets every topic, from indulgences to religious freedom, head on.

 

• Justin - I feel like Holy Spirit is calling me to be rebaptized. My pastor does not agree and won't do it. Do you have any thoughts? (00:34)
• Rich - I discovered that Jesus denounced Catholicism, so how could he be the founder? (09:08)
• John - Do we need to say the Act of Contrition before you get Absolution? (23:04)
• Dolores – Should we place limitations on the rights of the religious? Didn't Utah have to renounce polygamy before it became a state? (31:14)
• Patrick shares some emails in response to Rich’s call earlier in this hour
• Nick - I was baptized as a Ukrainian Catholic. I had the sacrament of Confirmation as an infant. How was this valid? (40:04)
• Doug - What is required to get a plenary indulgence? (42:41)
