On 6th May this year, we had Brother Marcus Chew, 5th-year seminarian at the Saint Francis Xavier Major Seminary, join us in co-presenting the Glory and Praise Show. Throughout the one and a half hours we had with him, we discussed a variety of issues including the demands of the priesthood in this day and age, as well as how it can be beneficial for teenagers to be exposed to philosophy or even theology while in school. This episode contains excerpts from that conversation.
