<div>

<p>What if the spiritual war isn’t coming… but already happening in a realm most people can’t see?</p><p>Tony sits down with Jade for a conversation that quickly moves beyond theory into firsthand encounters with what he calls “the other place”; a parallel realm where spiritual warfare is actively unfolding against people who have no idea they’re under attack. Jade describes witnessing dogman-like entities acting as enforcers, shadowy structures that function like strongholds, and hooded figures engaged in what appears to be organized, intentional darkness. What’s happening there, he claims, manifests here as depression, fear, division, and anxiety, revealing a hidden layer to everyday struggles. The discussion also explores the rise of occult practices, astral projection, and technology merging with spiritual access, suggesting the veil between realms may be thinning. At its core, this episode is a warning, and a call for believers to wake up, step into spiritual authority, and recognize that the battle is already underway.</p><p>Please <strong>pray</strong> for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer. Your prayers make a difference!</p><p>If you’re able, consider helping the Merkel family with medical expenses by donating to Lindsay’s<strong> GoFundMe:</strong> <a href="https://gofund.me/b8f76890">https://gofund.me/b8f76890<br /></a><br />Become a member for <strong>ad-free</strong> <strong>listening</strong>, <strong>extra shows</strong>, and <strong>exclusive</strong> access to our <strong>social media app</strong>: <a href="https://www.theconfessionalspodcast.com/join">theconfessionalspodcast.com/join<br /></a><br /><strong>The Confessionals Social Network App:</strong><br /><strong>Apple Store:</strong> <a href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/the-confessionals/id1666683243">https://apple.co/3UxhPrh</a><br /><strong>Google Play:</strong> <a href="https://play.google.com/store/search?q=the+confessionals&amp;c=apps&amp;pli=1">https://bit.ly/43mk8kZ<br /></a><br /><strong>The Counter Series Available NOW:<br />The Counter (YouTube):</strong> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1e8Pa8OrFHM">WATCH HERE</a><br /><strong>The Counter (Full Episode): </strong><a href="https://odx.tv/thecounter/">WATCH HERE<br /></a><br /><strong>The Big Picture Prophecy Conference:</strong> <a href="https://www.tickettailor.com/events/solidrockchurch/1968105">prophecyconference26.com</a></p><p><strong>Tony's Recommended Reads: </strong><a href="https://shop.recomsale.com/merkel/">slingshotlibrary.com<br /></a><br />If you want to learn about <strong>Jesus</strong> and what it means to be <strong>saved</strong>: <a href="https://www.theconfessionalspodcast.com/gospel">Click Here</a><strong><br /><br />Bigfoot: The Journey To Belief:</strong> <a href="https://merkelfilms.com/programs/bigfoot-the-journey-to-belief">Stream Here</a><br /><strong>The Meadow Project:</strong> <a href="https://merkelfilms.com/programs/the-meadow-project-night-investigations">Stream Here</a><br /><strong>Merkel Media Apparel:</strong> <a href="https://merkmerch.com/">merkmerch.com</a><strong><br /></strong><br /><strong>My New YouTube Channel</strong><br /><strong>Merkel IRL:</strong> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@merkelIRL">@merkelIRL</a><br /><strong>My First Sermon: </strong><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4r6jDWvlyuw&amp;t=1160s">Unseen Battles</a><br /><em><br /></em><strong>SPONSORS</strong><br /><strong>SIMPLISAFE TODAY:</strong> <a href="https://simplisafe.com/confessionals">simplisafe.com/confessionals</a><br /><strong>GHOSTBED: </strong><a href="https://www.ghostbed.com/pages/tony?utm_medium=influencer&amp;utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=tony">GhostBed.com/tony<br /></a><strong>QUINCE: </strong><a href="https://www.quince.com/our-core-collection?utm_source=veritone&amp;utm_medium=podcast&amp;utm_campaign=tony">quince.com/tony<br /></a><br /><strong>CONNECT WITH US</strong><br /><strong>Website</strong>: <a href="http://www.theconfessionalspodcast.com/">www.theconfessionalspodcast.com</a><br /><strong>Email</strong>: contact@theconfessionalspodcast.com</p><p><strong>MAILING ADDRESS:</strong><br />Merkel Media<br />257 N.
