Episode Details

What would you have done during the Holocaust? Rev. Jonnie Moore says that's no longer a hypothetical question. In this conversation, Pastor Greg Laurie sits down with Johnnie Moore—advisor to presidents, humanitarian, and one of the most connected evangelical voices on the global stage—three years after the October 7th attacks on Israel. We cover: • What actually happened on October 7th (and why the world moved on too quickly) • Hamas, Iran, and the reshaping of the Middle East • The surge of antisemitism on both the left and the right • Feeding Gaza while Hamas stole aid • Sharing the gospel with Muslims and Jews • Why Silicon Valley is quietly calling pastors about AI • What President Trump is really like behind closed doors • The best piece of advice Johnnie ever received—from a rabbi Johnnie grew up moving 20 times before age 12, ended up at Liberty under Jerry Falwell Sr., and now works at the intersection of faith, foreign policy, and emerging technology. His story —and his warnings—are worth your time. Subscribe for more conversations like this.
