Fr. Michael Newman, OSFS, is back in the Hot Seat to answer your questions about faith, life, and everything in between. We dive into topics like leaving Mass early, a deep dive into Mary Magdalene and we also talk about walking with LGBTQ+ individuals in faith, why priests are called “Father,” and how to navigate the gray areas of Christian life. With humor, stories, and real-life wisdom, this episode is a reminder that faith is a journey—sometimes messy, always challenging, and never meant to be done alone.
