This week, we’re honored to welcome Alex Turpin to the podcast — just days before he takes a major step in his vocation by being ordained a deacon. In this episode, Alex opens up about the long road of discernment that led him to the seminary, and how his faith deepened along the way. From early questions about his calling to the day-to-day life of seminary formation, Alex shares his story with honesty, warmth, and a little humor, too.

He also talks about what it was like to be in Rome during the momentous election of Pope Leo XIV — a once-in-a-lifetime experience that left a real impression on him.

If you’ve ever wondered what the journey to ordained ministry really looks like behind the scenes, this is the conversation for you. It’s thoughtful, heartfelt, and full of the kind of insight that only comes from someone who’s lived it.
