Patrick responds to honest questions about Jesus’ Resurrection, the Church’s teaching on indulgences, and struggles families face with transgender issues and cultural artifacts at home. He listens closely, offers clear explanations on Holy Communion for those with celiac disease, unpacks confusion around paying for spiritual benefits, and approaches each dilemma with warmth and candor.
- Michelle (email) - On Easter Sunday, when they found Jesus's tomb empty, his body and soul went to heaven. What happens when we die? Why do our bodies not go as well when we are buried? (01:51)
- Liz - I have always struggled to understand why we could get an indulgence. How is it that someone who has more money could get to heaven faster? (08:17)
- Matt - My son is dating a Protestant girl who has celiac disease. She is hesitant to receive the Eucharist. How can we guide her? (17:29)
- Joe - What do I need to do spiritually in place of Mass? I wasn't able to make Mass because Mass was not offered at my local parish today. (20:26)
- Yvonne - My parents have a lot of Native American pottery in their house. A lot of their friends say they shouldn’t have them in their house. (24:27)
- Maria - My son is transgender and we struggle to have a good relationship with him. My daughter constantly says he is wrong. I feel this is not helping. (36:21)
