In this episode, Scott and Justin delve into Ethiopia's rich spiritual heritage. Their journey begins in Lalibela, where they marvel at ancient churches intricately hewn from rock. Justin attempts to teach local schoolchildren some new vocabulary. The duo then explores the historic castles of Gondor and visits the Church of Saint Mary of Zion, believed to be the resting place of the lost Ark of the Covenant. Their adventure continues at the Debra Damos monastery, which requires a daring climb up a cliff. There, they engage in a humorous yet profound exchange with a lively monk who shares insights on brotherhood and humanity's roots.
