The Patrick Madrid Show
From discussing the recent confusion surrounding baptism for same-sex couples and transgender individuals, to addressing concerns about the handling of Holy Communion by a priest with a cold, Patrick provides insightful and informative responses. Plus, we explore the intriguing concept of the messianic secret and why Jesus encouraged some witnesses of his miracles to remain silent. * Joseph - Why did God tolerate polygamy in the Old Testament? * Agnes - How does Adam and Eve's creation fit in with ancient people who have a history going back 7000 or 8000 years? * Dave - What do you think about extraordinary ministers? * Dawn - What do you think about the allowing baptisms for gay couples and transgender couples? (24:10) * Ed - I took your advice and spoke with a priest who let the lay people take communion straight from the bowl and found that he had a cold that day so he didn't want to spread it to other people. * Kevin - Why did Jesus tell people not to spread His name around when He heals them? * Patrick recommends the book, “Diary of a Pilgrimage” by Egeria * Alyssa - What is the Church’s stance on the transgender movement? I talked with a woman who said that the Church doesn't hold to men being men and women being women anymore. (38:10) * Christine - There was a Bishop who called for female deacons and a woman said she was already a deacon in the Hebrew Catholic Church. * Martha - My daughter has been away from the Church for a while and recently wanted to start reading the bible. Is there a good bible studies for my daughter? * Sue - Thank you for everything you did for me Patrick. After talking with the priest you recommended, I went outside and saw the sun but I felt the Son.
