My guest this week is the priest at https://www.sttimothy.net and the head man at https://deathtotheworld.com. We are discussing the battleground where unseen and spiritual warfare takes place. We also talk about the weapons the Church gives us in this battle. Fr. John gets into the soul after death, Fr. Seraphim Rose, the Saints, Great Lent, and the importance of family within the Orthodox Church.

My guest this week is Maximum Leader over at , Charles Haywood. I still enjoy chatting about politics, and this current moment we are in is like no other in my lifetime. Charles is here to help break it all down, from the massive defeat of the Left, to Trump, Elon, Vance, Gabbard, and the whole new facelift of the political power elite.

My guest this week writes at and is a priest in the Orthodox Church. He is Father Zechariah Lynch. Fr. Zechariah and I get into the issue of Christians resisting evil... or not. If we call out something as wrong, evil, or dangerous, some are quick to tell us that we are being judgmental and not very Christian. Are we to be pacifists and let people do as they will? What about during the pandemic? Are we wrong to call out those who wanted experimental medicine forced on us? What about those who wished us to be locked in our homes? We also get into the recent discussion online as to whether or not it's "priestly" to work out and post about it. Does becoming fit and strong make one subject to the sin of vanity?

Kara Mosher is our guest this week, and we are discussing her wild journeys that ultimately led her to the Orthodox Church. Her new book, "Here Comes Trouble", is a very good read filled with interesting stories, some of which we cover in this episode. Kara was deep into the occult as well as being a psychic medium. Once she discovered the reality of Christ, she turned to Christianity. This took her through Protestantism and finally to the Orthodox Church. Come along with us on this fascinating discussion with a very real and genuine person, Kara Mosher.

Today, my friend George Michalopulos is back on the show to discuss the themes in his new book, "For Fear of the Angels: Who Were the Sons of God in Genesis 6 1-4?" We get into the main theories regarding this question. We discuss how angels have come and interacted with humans, what these angels were about, the Nephalim, the giants, Cain, The Book of Enoch, and more. This is a fascinating topic, and I hope you enjoy this discussion.

Today, I have Fr. John Whiteford and Jim Jatras back on the show. We are breaking down and answering critiques that were presented by Pastor Joel Webbon, Pastor J. Chase Davis, and others in a podcast from Right Response Ministries called "Why Young Men Are Flocking To Eastern Orthodoxy" (). Right Response Ministries is a Protestant group, and they have several very good podcast episodes; they're definitely not enemies. We disagree on how they present the Orthodox Church, though, and that's why we wanted to make this response to them.

Father Peter Heers is back on the show, and we are discussing the themes in the book, "On the Reception of the Heterodox Into the Orthodox Church", published by Uncut Mountain Press. There are some converts to Orthodoxy who want to be baptized into the Church, yet they are told their previous baptism was just fine, so they only need Chrismation. Is this the view of the Church Fathers? What is the exception? Is this done in a manner that is consistent with the Saints and the Patrisitc writings? Is baptism necessary for our salvation? We get into all of these questions and more. Fr. Peter is the founder and current head of Uncut Mountain Press (founded in 2000), the founder and head of The Orthodox Ethos, and the founder and first editor of "Divine Ascent, A Journal of Orthodox Faith" (begun in 1995). Fr. Peter was also the host of the podcast, Postcards from Greece.

My guest this week runs the fantastic YouTube channel, Unto Ages. We are discussing a much used term that is based in an obvious contradiction: Judeo-Christianity. Why are these two words combined to mean something coherent when they aren't at all the same? It may seem trivial to some, but it's having very negative effects on geopolitics. It's also incorrect theology, so we feel it helpful to explain that as well. We get into this, Zionism, Israel, the antichrist, and more.

Happy new year! I'm happy to bring you the first episode of 2025, and I'm glad to have Joe Gillespie joining me. Joe is the writer over at . We are discussing a theme that runs through a few of his pieces there ( and ), and that is the culture of narcissism that is rampant in our modern society. Because of social media, we see it much more often than we should. Two ways it manifests are with something called "main character syndrome" and the "spiritual, not religious" folks. Joe and I dive into what this is all about and how to avoid it, if at all possible. Joe gets into the deeper spiritual goals of fitness as well!
