Faith Beyond the Pew with Ethan Huston
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of Open Seat, we sit down with Ethan Huston, a recent college graduate navigating the uncertainty of life after school while staying deeply rooted in his Catholic faith.
Ethan shares his journey of growing up in the Catholic Church, choosing to stay involved when many walk away, and what it really means to live your faith instead of just showing up on Sundays. From starting a young adult Bible study to reading the Bible in a year (twice!), Ethan offers an honest look at faith in real life—questions, struggles, and all.
We also dive into: What discernment looks like when you don’t have a clear plan, How prayer and Scripture shape everyday decisions, Why young people struggle to stay in the Church, The importance of actually trying the faith before rejecting it, Saints, relics, and choosing a confirmation name with purpose
Whether you’re searching, struggling, or strong in your beliefs, this conversation offers encouragement to take your faith seriously—and make it your own.
