In this spontaneous and unfiltered episode of Orthodox Conundrum, Scott shares heartfelt reflections on Israel's war against Iran—not from a political or military perspective, but through personal experience and the lens of faith. What does it mean to believe in Divine providence during a time of fear and uncertainty? How should we grapple with the moral and spiritual implications of war? Without a script or agenda, this episode wrestles with the difficult questions that arise when religious conviction meets the harsh realities of conflict.
