Sheridan Voysey from The Friendship Lab joins Max to discuss the rise of “AI friendships.” With research showing that some young people are willing to share with AI things they wouldn’t tell anyone else, how do we disciple people whose closest confidant may be a chatbot?
Plus, they discuss: Should we have manners with a chatbot? Does AI’s directness affect the way we view God? And is there more than meets the eye to ChatGPT’s “personalities”?

Lights, camera, action! For 'Just Like Jesus' this week, Max and Lydia sat down with antiques expert and TV presenter David Harper to think about what Jesus would be like in front of the camera. They discuss faith, fame, pressure, and staying grounded when the spotlight’s on. David also opens up about becoming a Christian just over a year ago and shares more from his new book, The God Conundrum.
Artist and creative director Junior Garr joins Max & Lydia in the studio to share his story, from growing up in Ghana to how God redirected the trajectory of his career. He talks about his heart behind SpiritCon — a new conference calling Christians back to “sacred living” and what that actually looks like in everyday life — as well as reflecting on his time at Bethel, recording for The Lion King, and the realities of building and running a conference.
Author, preacher, and broadcaster Jeff Lucas joins Max to chat about doubt—and why questioning your faith doesn’t necessarily mean losing it. Jeff speaks candidly about the realities of following Jesus, why he is honest about his questions, and how Mother Teresa’s story can help us deal with God’s seeming silence.
