Patrick explains how to respond when the sacred is mocked, how to use your voice for good, and the power of living by example in a secular world. Plus, insights on how to evangelize effectively, even in tough environments.

 

• Josh - I feel like the religious and secular world are getting further and further apart. The Olympics is showing that the values between the two are changing. Is it worth being upset about things or should we just go our own way and they would go theirs? (02:21)
• Email – Do not do those DNA tests!
• Britney - I got in contact with my birth parents recently. One knew about me but the other half didn't know I existed. Would it be immoral for me to use a DNA service because it might throw off other people's lives? (19:30)
• Richard - Insights for Brian who was on in the second hour: Instead of civil divorcing, they can get a legal separation, and get permission from the Bishop.
• Adrian - Where were the Bishop’s when we needed them after the opening of the Olympics?
• Charles - Why does the Church promote the NAB bible, because the notes are contrary to the Church's teaching?  (35:05)
• Sue – How do we live and respond to a culture that doesn’t respect our faith?
• Heidi - Archbishop Gomez invited everyone to LA for Corpus Christi next year, I will go to support our brothers and sisters in California because they need it due to the political issues in that state.
• Marissa – We need advice on picking godparents for our baby, but we don't have family or friends close to their faith. (45:57)
