    827: An Invasion of the Supernatural Realm
    Jan 13 2026
    In this powerful and deeply personal conversation, Heather Z shares a powerful testimony shaped by trauma, the supernatural, and unwavering encounters with God. She recounts a near-death experience at age 14, human trafficking, and seasons of spiritual rebellion, yet through it all, God’s presence never left her. Heather describes miraculous physical healings, including a broken C1 vertebra that healed in weeks, and a long battle with hereditary kidney failure that placed her in the middle of intense spiritual warfare. That conflict escalated into a disturbing demonic manifestation through a doctor, followed by moments of divine protection and clarity. The episode culminates in a chilling face-to-face encounter with a Gray entity, where prayer and spiritual authority immediately shifted the outcome. This is a raw and sobering testimony of endurance, discernment, and the power of Christ to heal, protect, and restore.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

    RELOADED | 399: Shift Your Paradigm | Destiny Lab
    Jan 12 2026
    In Episode 399: Shift Your Paradigm, we are joined by Ark from Destiny Lab, a hip-hop group whose music focuses on creepy cryptids, government conspiracies, dystopian futures, and more - and all from a Biblical perspective. Ark and I have been in contact over the years, and have finally recorded a podcast episode together. Our conversation dives into monsters of the woods, transhumanism and the future of the human race, and even Ark’s background in Hollywood and what compelled him to eventually leave that industry.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

    2026 and the Underground Invasion | Slingshot Nation
    Jan 9 2026

    The veil between the natural and the spiritual is thinner than ever. In this live broadcast, we explore the terrifying and glorious reality of worlds colliding. Is the "Upside Down" manifesting in our world actually the beginning of the Great Tribulation? We are diving deep into the Apocalypse, the rise of darkness from beneath the earth, and the ultimate hope found in the Return of Christ. Join us as we discuss how spiritual warfare is manifesting into physical reality and what you need to do to be ready for the final clash.

    Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!
