Father Anthony Messeh has been going viral before social media even existed — and after a year of persistent follow-ups from George, he's finally here.

In this deeply personal and wide-ranging conversation, one of the most beloved Coptic Orthodox priests in the world sits down with George and Simon to tackle the questions that matter most: war and faith, ambition and surrender, the friendships that shape us, and what it actually takes to build a marriage that lasts.

Fr. Anthony doesn't hold back. Whether it's the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation, why gossip spreads and how one person can stop it, or his four characteristics of a marriage built to last — every answer is grounded, honest, and refreshingly real.

Jessica Murray - known online as Craft to Christ - was one of the biggest witches on the internet.

In this episode, Jessica shares her raw, unfiltered journey from witchcraft and the New Age to a life fully surrendered to Jesus Christ — and what she saw along the way that she can't unsee. From the real cost of casting spells, to a near-death haemorrhage that she says was a miracle, to breaking down how Christians are protected from curses, Jessica holds nothing back. She also unpacks demonic spirits like Leviathan and Jezebel, why the elite are deeper in Satanism than people think, and how to protect your kids from the growing witchcraft trend.

If you've been curious, hurt by the church, or sitting on the fence about Jesus — this one's for you.
