Dr. Sam D. Kim is a pastor, author, and ethicist who is offering insight and care into some of the most essential gaps in the mental health conversation.
When working in a prestigious position as research fellow in Global Health and Social Medicine at the Center for Bioethics at Harvard Medical School, Dr. Kim began noticing the deep burn-out impacting many healthcare workers. He found that these highly-educated, socially celebrated individuals were often experiencing intense emotional lows. The result was a lot of work digging into the mechanics of burnout — and how to repair it.
Dr. Kim’s work is born of a deep personal faith that developed through experiencing God’s compassionate healing hand after his own trauma in the process of his family’s relocation to America from Korea. That faith is explored in depth through A Holy Haunting: Why Faith Isn’t a Leap but a Series of Staggers from One Safe Place to Another. This episode digs into the book’s intriguing title while continuing the Trevor Talks mission of shedding light on the hardest mental health conversations.

Jerome Flood is the founder of FloodGeight and a drummer who has mastered the art of drumming. Believe it or not? It all started with skipping class.
This master beat keeper boasts accolades such as drumming for Crowder and winning Guitar Center's 20th annual Drum-Off that pitted him against over 6,000 other drummers. Like so many musicians who has achieved startling success at a young age, for Jerome, it started with a dream and a relentless work ethic to pursue it.
On this episode of Trevor Talks, you’ll hear about that path, as well as about his band FloodGeight’s new track “Chase Me.” You’ll also hear about some of the surprising ways Trevor and Jerome’s paths have been similar, and how it (unsurprisingly for longterm listeners) involved metalcore!

Archetypes Collide is becoming one of the most talked-about names in hard rock — before their debut album even releases. With unswervingly honest lyrics and a variety of genre archetypes smashed together for one monster sound, Archetypes Collide’s forthcoming self-titled album (due March 31) promises to hit home for a variety of listeners.
The heartbeat of these songs comes from singer and primary songwriter Kyle Pastor’s own personal and emotional process. Trying to determine where he fit in and what piece music had in his identity was a long road for the church-kid-turned rocker. These days, Kyle has settled into his creative passions, his role as a husband and a dad, and work as a creative director at his church.
But even with that foundation and the sudden explosive growth of Archetypes Collide, Kyle is no stranger to anxiety and doubt. His process of pushing through? Community, solidarity, and acceptance of who he was created to be.

Everyone has favorite songs. But not everyone gets the chance to be in a band with the same people who wrote those favorite songs.
That’s Brett Hellings’ story. As the voice that carries supergroup Hellings, Brett heads a lineup that includes Tommy Henriksen (Alice Cooper), Richard Fortus (Guns N’ Roses), Buck Johnson (Aerosmith), Kenny Aronoff (Smashing Pumpkins) and Billy Sheehan (Mr. Big). Together, they took the unusual opportunity afforded by the pandemic in order to create thunderous classic rock music that is both nostalgic and fresh.
We talk about that music on this episode, including their first single “Kill Me to Keep Loving You.” But more importantly, we get an honest look at how a kid from Pennsylvania who grew up steeped in classic rock not only met his heroes— but is making music with them.

The album name encapsulates a season of soul-searching for United as the band’s home church, Hillsong, has undergone seismic leadership changes.

Caden Fabrizio is the host of the fast-rising podcast Questions with Caden, a show that takes a look at faith questions that rarely get asked.
Only just in its second season, the show has already tackled topics like tragedy, truth, purpose, and fear.
As a Liberty University graduate, Caden has studied the Bible deeply. But as this conversation on Trevor Talks quickly reveals, Caden has more than just head knowledge: he has a heart-deep relationship with Jesus that has taught him to accept true peace and rest.
If you’ve ever been taught that performance = success, this is the episode for you. You’ll hear how Caden redefined his own mental health goals from chasing an absence of anxiety to inviting the presence of Jesus instead.

At just 22 years old, Whitney Miller was crowned MasterChef on the first American season of the high profile cooking competition. From the outset, she convinced even the usually skeptical Gordon Ramsay.
That early success would set the stage for Whitney’s unstoppable momentum. Now a cookbook author, entrepreneur, wife, and mom, Whitney has been featured on GMA, Huckabee, and Southern Living. On this episode of Trevor Talks, she gives us a glimpse of the God-given confidence that has allowed her to navigate every new opportunity with determination and innovation — including starting the successful new business Whitney’s Cookies at the beginning of the pandemic. You’ll also get to hear from her show-stealing 4-year-old son Harrison about why his mom’s baking is the best!

Adam Gontier is a rock singer and songwriter whose career spans multiple number 1 hits, Billboard music awards, and major placement by franchises such as WWE. As original frontman for Three Days Grace, it’s safe to say that Adam Gontier’s voice defined an era. Leading songs like “Never Too Late” and “Animal I Have Become” to record-smashing success, Adam wrote some of the most recognizable hard rock songs of the 2000s. In the process, he also brought mental health into the rock arena.
His impact didn’t stop with Three Days Grace. With his current band Saint Asonia, Adam Gontier continues to pen essential hard rock songs — most recently with Introvert and Extrovert, dual EPs that are combined into one full-length release. On this episode of Trevor Talks, Adam shares about how those two sets of songs tell a story that begins in quarantine and resolves on the other side. He also shares about why it matters to keep fighting stigma around mental health, and how music has been his lifelong outlet through his own journey through addiction into sobriety.
The conversation is a full circle moment for podcast host Trevor, who had his own interest in rock shaped by Three Days Grace’s music — as did thousands of other aspiring musicians and creatives. This is a truly unforgettable glimpse into the story and the mind of a rock legend.

James Barnett has led greeting card company DaySpring from its humble beginnings in Arkansas through its current status as a global source of encouragement. With over 40 years of experience with the company, James has learned a lot about what it looks like to live into his life’s calling. That calling began when James Barnett was growing up in the south as a pastor’s kid, the youngest of 7 children. Money was always tight, which created resourcefulness and drive in a young James. But when he attended a conference in Dallas, his life was forever changed by a question: “Are you driven, or are you called?” That conference was his first step towards asking God, “what are You doing, and how can I be a part of it?” James Barnett expands on that life-changing perspective shift in this episode of Trevor Talks and his brand-new book Blue Skies. This is an episode for anyone who needs encouragement to pursue their own calling.

Dayseeker is experiencing the rare momentum of a band just hitting their stride. With their newly-released album Dark Sun, they’re following up the 2019 fan-beloved album Sleeptalk. While offering continuity of quality, Dark Sun also ventures into wholly new territory for the post-metalcore band.
Much of the new ground broken on Dark Sun is due to the experience of frontman Rory Rodriguez, who wrote the majority of the album about his dad’s death. “The sun burned out the day that my dad died,” Rory explains, illuminating the album’s title.
Those are the themes we explore in this episode of Trevor Talks. Rory shares with us about losing his own father just as he became a father himself, how COVID catalyzed the band’s role in fans’ hearts, and what it’s like to be a band on the rise. He also offers insight into his personal struggle with anxiety and how songwriting continues to be the lifeline that pulls him through.

Jonathan Evans is an NFL chaplain who leads with the invaluable experience of having been in the shoes of the players he serves. During his stint in the NFL, Jonathan played as a fullback. Now, he’s chaplain for the Dallas Cowboys and co-chaplain of the Dallas Mavericks, a writer, a speaker, a husband, and a father.
Jonathan’s experience extends beyond football: he’s also able to identify with those he ministers to due to his own deeply personal experiences of loss. In the last few years, he lost several close family members, and experienced four miscarriages with his wife Kanika. Going through the grief uniquely equipped him to write his new book Fighting Your Battles, which is available now.
In this episode of Trevor Talks, Jonathan shares endless pearls of wisdom that you won’t want to miss. He also talks about his history in the NFL and what it was like to come from a dynasty ministry family as the child of preacher Tony Evans.

Hey, y'all! Today I’m sharing a special episode of “The Happy Rant” podcast hosted by Barnabas Piper, Ronnie Martin, and Ted Kluck! On "The Happy Rant," the guys share some funny stories and have a good laugh.
I was so inspired by their storytelling that I actually joined in on the fun and tell the story of my latest encounter with a possum at the end of the episode. 🦔 (There aren't possum emojis, so this hedgehog will have to do. 🤣)

If you’ve heard Fit For A King’s new album The Hell We Create, you know it’s musically and thematically heavy. After listening to this episode, you’ll understand why.
Ryan Kirby has been fronting the Texas-based metalcore band since 2010. With his vocals at the helm, Fit For A King has become one of Solid State Records’ flagship bands, known for punishing breakdowns and live shows to match. Although they’ve never shied away from heaviness — musically or thematically — their new album The Hell We Create takes the weight to the next level.
In this episode, you’ll hear about the journeys into various kinds of hells that fueled the band’s most vulnerable and visceral album yet. From facing his wife’s near-death experience, to vicarious trauma through adopting children, to enduring years without live music due to the pandemic, Ryan Kirby has been to countless personal lows in the last two years. The album and this conversation map the way through that pain — and the way out.

Kayla Stoecklein, Christian Wilson, and host Trevor Tyson all have something in common: they’ve lost someone close to them to suicide.
For Kayla, it was her husband Andrew. For Christian, it was his brother Jarrid. Both were pastors and passionate mental health advocates who left behind a legacy of redemptive grief for everyone who loved them and learned from them.
As someone who has survived love ones’ deaths by suicide also, on this episode Trevor creates a safe, sacred space for conversation. What results is healing and light shed on the often-stigmatized topic of mental health and suicide in the church.

Cody Carnes was already one of the most experienced and respected worship leaders in the country. Then the meteoric 2020 rise of “The Blessing” cemented his voice as timely and life-giving for the church.
Cody’s experience includes serving with Gateway Church in Texas, The Belonging Co in Tennessee, Passion Movement, sharing the stage with his wife Kari Jobe, and his own solo career.

Despite the success, in this episode of Trevor Talks, you’ll see a true servant’s heart on display. Cody shares about the experience of being trusted to steward one of the biggest songs of our generation, how to keep priorities straight when leading worship is also your job, and the fact that God is Good is the first half of a dual album (watch for the next installment in 2023).

Since he exploded onto the scene nearly 20 years ago, Lecrae has become the undisputed leader of Christian hip hop. With a slew of Dove awards, Grammy awards, Stellar awards, and crossover mainstream success, Lecrae has earned his place as the genre’s standard-setter. He’s even led the industry as the founder of Reach Records. But after all those accomplishments, this lyricist still has something new to say.
That’s what you’ll hear on “Spread the Opps,” the brand new single that is the first taste of the upcoming Church Clothes Vol 4.
In a candid conversation on this week’s episode, Lecrae offers a transparent look at his journey through deconstruction into reconstruction. He explains how a mental health crisis ultimately fueled rebirth. Through all of it, the genre giant offers clarifying perspective on what’s truly worth investing in.
Lecrae’s music is self-described as unorthodox, rough around the edges, but all in a righteous and healthy way. Stream “Spread the Opps” now: https://lecrae.ffm.to/opps.OFP

The Kendrick brothers have a name that has become synonymous with Christian cinema. Alex, Stephen, and Shannon Kendrick have dedicated their lives to crafting faith-forward films like Overcomer, War Room, Fireproof, and Facing the Giants.
Lifemark is the latest entry in the brothers’ shared life’s work, a movie telling the true story of a life-changing adoption. Based on interviews with the real people who lived out the story, the Kendrick brothers hope that it’s poignant and powerful in the way that only true stories can be. They share more about that on this week’s episode of Trevor Talks.
Before you hear from the Kendrick brothers, you’ll also get to hear from two actresses who have firsthand experience in their films: Micah Lynn Hanson and Shari Rigby!

Sonya Hunter’s story is a gift to anyone wondering how to survive the unsurvivable.
As a wife and young mother, Sonya felt like she had her dream life. That life was shattered in an instant with a car crash that delivered devastating loss: she lost a son and her husband in the same moment. Doctors told her that her surviving son, Conner, wouldn’t live through the night.
It’s been 16 years, and Conner is still proving that dire prediction wrong, one day at a time. Piece by piece, Sonya has watched God reform the pieces of her old life into something uniquely, beautifully new.
That process of redemptive purpose through unimaginable pain is captured in her book Unsurvivable: Even in the darkest storm, always find your rainbow. She gives the Trevor Talks family a glimpse of that journey on this latest episode, offering the wisdom, grace, and courage of a woman who has survived the storm.

Anne Wilson’s journey into music has been one of redemptive plot twists. Before the breakaway success of her viral hit “My Jesus,” Anne was just a sister mourning the sudden, tragic loss of her brother.
Anne was 15 when her brother Jacob died in a car accident. Despite never being drawn to music before, Anne found herself compelled to worship through song as she processed her grief. The very first time she ever sang publicly was at her brother’s funeral. Just a few years later, she had a record deal— and a hit that offered comfort to others walking their own grief journeys.
We follow that journey from heartbreak into hope on this episode of Trevor Talks, soaking in all the wisdom that this 20-year-old songstress has to offer.

Naomi Raine is the powerhouse voice best known as one of the core members of Grammy-award-winning group Maverick City Music. But, with her debut solo album, Journey, she’s bringing her voice to center stage and sharing her story.
Growing up in Queens as the daughter of worship leaders, Naomi’s life has never been without music. She sang publicly for the first time at a major gospel concert at just 2 years old.
However, her path into the vibrant music ministry that has impacted the world was not always smooth. An unexpected pregnancy at 18 planted social alienation and deep-held shame. But on this episode of Trevor Talks, Naomi shares how grace has made every bump in the road level.
As we gratefully celebrate 100 episodes of Trevor Talks, take a deep dive with us into the heart and the healing found in the songs on Journey.

You might not have heard Jonas Myrin’s name before, but you’ve definitely heard his songs. As the writer of worship anthems like “10,000 Reasons” and “Our God,” Jonas has resourced the global church. Through collaborating with legends like Barbra Streisand and Natasha Beddingfield, he’s also given his musical gifts to the whole world.
This GRAMMY-winning songwriter’s journey began in an unlikely place: as the Swedish kid of missionaries to Africa. In those early years of life, his soul was filled with the wonder of witnessing miracles.
That awe permeates the songs Jonas writes. You can hear it on “Mountains,” a brand new song that uses faith to turn fear inside out.
Listen to this episode of Trevor Talks for the inside scoop on the development of his music and ministry, the meaning of “Mountains,” and the profoundly personal way that a song he wrote ushered his dad into heaven.

Here on Trevor Talks, she shares about the process of writing that album, taking a deep dive into songs like “Wherever You Lead.” Beyond the music, Kristene dives deep into her personal story of finding her voice in music and in ministry, a story marked by this encouragement: “don’t lose hope, and He’ll meet you with His faith.”

Michael Felker is the voice that leads Convictions, a self-proclaimed “aggressive worship” band who is capturing raw emotion with noise.
Convictions has rapidly risen to be a forerunner in faith-based metalcore with their blistering riffs and vocals and their unafraid approach to some of life’s hardest conversations. With songs about PTSD, suicide, and what it really looks like to live as a person of faith amid mental health struggles, songs like “Moros,” “Hurricane,” “The Price of Grace,” and recent release “Supernova” continually invite listeners to feel intensely heard.
In this episode of Trevor Talks, Michael Felker shares about some of the stories that have fueled these aggressive worship songs— stories from his own life, and from friends and fans of the band. It’s a conversation that continues to remind us that no matter what darkness we’ve walked through, we’re not the only one.

Steven Curtis Chapman is undeniably one of the best-known names in the past century of faith-focused music. As the most awarded contemporary Christian musician of our time, Steven Curtis Chapman is still being inspired 35 years into the journey.
Steven Curtis Chapman’s latest single “Still” is the starting place for this conversation on Trevor Talks. The song captures the comfort of supernatural peace that passes understanding, peace Steven has come to know intimately through grieving the loss of a daughter and, more recently, a brother-in-law. “Still” is the first single from an upcoming album that promises to answer the question so much of the world is asking right now: “how do we keep moving forward?”
For Steven, the answer to that question comes through unshakable faith in the God that took the son of a Kentucky music store owner into a career that would span 11 million album sales, 59 Dove Awards, 5 Grammys, 49 number one hits, and untold lives changed through the songs he’s been given to sing.

Miggy Sanchez is a man defined by his family, by his calling, and by his deep faith. But it hasn’t always been that way.
Until his mid-20s, Miggy’s life was defined by any addiction that could numb the pain. As a musician in the Texas scene, he lived the drugs, sex, and rock and roll lifestyle— not knowing that his life was on a collision course with God’s purpose. An encounter with God radically changed Miggy’s life, leading to a new vision for what it meant to be a husband, a father, and ultimately, a musician. Miggy shares hope now through the Rockfest Records band RELENT, whose Grizzly Award-winning album Heavy has been turning heads for the past year.

As part of the Hillsong family, Taya Gaukrodger (better known as simply Taya) has given voice to some of the most recognizable worship anthems of our generation— including Oceans (Where Feet May Fail), Touch The Sky, Captain, & Even When It Hurts (Praise Song).
That powerful voice is now coming into its own through her debut solo album, TAYA.
This episode of Trevor Talks is a deep dive into the season of life that fueled her solo venture, which was co written and produced by Jon Guerra. Taya explains how the sweetness of the Lord was the theme that wove its way through this project, how that was manifested even in the right people being led to collaborate at the right time. She also offers insight into some of the cornerstone lyrics on this project, and her perspective on the Hillsong community that she has faithfully served alongside.

As one of the most consistent servant leaders in the Passion movement, Kristian Stanfill’s voice has led landmark songs like “Always,” “Heart Abandoned,” “One Thing Remains” and “Forever Reign.”
The commitment that’s so visible on stage comes from a life lived in servant leadership behind the scenes.
Kristian has been a part of the Passion family since 2005, citing Louie and Shelly Giglio as significant factors in mentoring his calling to worship ministry into maturity. However, his personal pull towards this work goes back even further, to an experience at a youth camp that transformed his life. That testimony has driven him to becoming a participant in God’s transformation of tens of thousands of students through Passion Conferences.
You’ll hear Kristian’s story and his wisdom in this latest episode of Trevor Talks, as well as getting a window into how the ministry of Passion intersected with Trevor’s own calling.

Moriah Smallbone has been making music for a long time, but you’ve never heard her make music the way she does on her new EP Live From the Quarry.
The collection of atmospheric worship songs presents the first music Moriah has created almost entirely on her own— a fitting approach for lyrics that are also the most raw and personal she has ever released. Moriah’s career has spanned an early audition for American Idol, time as a solo artist, and collaboration with her husband Joel Smallbone (for KING & COUNTRY). But with Live From the Quarry, Moriah channels her own pain into a new kind of ownership of the voice God has given her.
She shares about this vulnerable process of becoming more fully herself in this episode of Trevor Talks, a conversation dripping with wisdom and authenticity.

Micah Lynn Hanson’s new movie A Match Made at Christmas was, fittingly enough, something of a match made in heaven for the rising actress. The movie was filmed in her hometown of Coeur D’Alene, Idaho, in her best friend’s childhood home, and Micah got to serve as both the lead actress and associate producer. It was truly an experience of seeing a dream come true in the full circle faithfulness of God.
But these mountain top moments for Micah have been far from instantaneous. They’re the result of a lifetime of growth and becoming. Micah’s story begins with a shy, homeschooled kid in Northern Idaho who ultimately found her voice through theater. God has steadily fostered that voice, through the challenges of self-doubt, the pain of chronic illness, and the road out of legalism and into grace. Wherever you are in your own process, this conversation Micah had on Trevor Talks is likely to offer encouragement to lean deeper into community and grace.

Pastor Mike Kai knows from personal experience that success doesn’t just happen— it’s the outcome of countless daily choices to walk in obedience.
Currently, Mike and his wife Lisa lead a multi-site church network, the Inspire Network. The powerful network grew from humble beginnings as a church that Mike and Lisa planted in Hawaii in 2001. Today, that network has produced life-giving conferences and books, with the most recent release being Mike’s book That Doesn’t Just Happen. But on this episode of Trevor Talks, Mike takes us back even further, into the challenges that shaped his character.
Pastor Mike grew up in a small town in Hawaii. Early plans for a career in the air force were interrupted when Mike’s girlfriend got pregnant when he was just 19. They married, but within two years, the marriage was over and Mike was desperate and alone. It was then that a coworker friend invited him to church— and changed Mike’s life forever. This episode tells the story of what led Mike from that turning point into a position as a leader in both professional and spiritual development.

Last year, Jeremy Camp’s early years were captured in the hit movie I Still Believe. Though the real-life story the movie told was profound and compelling, the truth is that it was only barely the beginning of Jeremy’s life, music, and ministry.
Now one of the Christian music industry’s most consistent and faithful veterans, Jeremy is also a husband to his wife, Adie and the father of 2 teenagers & a young son who are increasingly successful in their own right. Our conversation on this episode of Trevor Talks covers all of this. We also dig deep into the personal process Jeremy was walking through personally in his relationship with God during the pandemic, a time of growth and renewal that resulted in the joy-filled new album When You Speak.
Jeremy Camp is a Grammy-nominated artist with over 365 million lifetime streams worldwide, 41 number 1 radio hits (including “I Still Believe” and “There Will Be A Day”), 4 RIAA Gold-certified albums, and 6 GMA Dove Awards. When You Speak is his 13th studio album to date.

If you had told a younger Ben Bennett that he would one day be writing books, leading a global movement, and helping thousands heal, he likely would not have believed you. Growing up, Ben experienced abuse and was frequently bullied and belittled. His sense of worthlessness increased when his grandpa died by suicide when Ben was a teenager. Depressed and desperate for comfort, Ben fell into pornography and over-eating to cope. But that was only the beginning of his story.
Through therapy, recovery groups, and the transforming grace of a redemptive God, Ben has lived a journey of restoration— a route that he has committed to walking alongside others through Resolution Movement. That personal passion led to his new book, Free to Thrive**, co-authored with Josh McDowell. On this episode of Trevor Talks, Ben Bennett tells his story while inviting us to join him in learning to see ourselves the way God sees us.

Singer, songwriter, author, legislative activist: Natalie Grant has held many titles throughout her storied career. However, at heart, Natalie is simply a girl who said yes to God’s call to step out in faith.
In this episode of Trevor Talks, Natalie outlines her road from a childhood in Seattle to an acclaimed eight-time GRAMMY nominee and five-time Dove Award-winning Female Vocalist of the Year. Along the way, God placed a passion in her heart for children who were being trafficked, both at home and around the world. The result is Hope For Justice, a nonprofit organization that has brought restoration to the lives of 102,803 children in the last year alone and recently was a key player in passing groundbreaking labor trafficking legislation.
Natalie Grant is bringing her passionate heart and intensely resonant voice to so many places that we could barely cover all of them in this episode. You’ll find so much more of the story in Natalie’s most recent book, Dare to Be, written in collaboration with her ministry partner Charlotte Gambill. Find it on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.

Few voices can claim to have shaped Christian music as much as Michael W. Smith. From humble beginnings as a child learning to play piano by ear and singing in the church choir, Michael W. Smith’s commitment to the Gospel of Christ and the craftsmanship of songwriting would catapult him to 3 Grammys, 45 Dove Awards, and countless number 1 hits. But before there were accolades, there was a family— and a testimony.
On this episode of Trevor Talks, we’re privileged to hear the origin story of Michael W. Smith. He gives us a glimpse at the incredible character of his parents, detailed in his new book The Way of the Father. He honestly shares about his prodigal experience in young adulthood, about how drug and alcohol led him to rock bottom a supernatural encounter with God’s love. He brings us up to the present day, detailing the way his career began through God’s grace expressed through fellow musicians (like Amy Grant and Higher Ground) and has continued in grace every step of the way.

Franni Rae Cash Cain is one of the voices of Grammy-nominated worship band We The Kingdom. Formed by members of the musical Cash family, We The Kingdom has invited listeners deeper into God’s healing love and grace with songs like “Holy Water,” “Child of Love” and “God So Loved.” But for Franni, experiencing that grace came before singing about it.
While growing up surrounded by the musical ventures of her father and uncle, Franni also grew up with her own experiences of ministry — and her own struggles with mental health. In this especially vulnerable and honest conversation on Trevor Talks, Franni reveals that after enduring a situation of religious abuse, she struggled with self-harm, depression, and anxious, intensely self-critical thoughts. She talks about her own process of discovering healthy, grace-filled rhythms that steady her soul.

Hulvey, a twenty-two-year-old Brunswick, GA native, went from dropping out of college and scrubbing toilets at Publix to becoming Reach Records' latest hip hop rising artist.

Pandora named him "Christian Artist to Watch in 2020", his work has been featured on VH1's Love and Hip Hop Atlanta in 2020 and on ABC's hit show 'The Rookie.' Shortly after, BRKNHRT released just as the global pandemic hit. Having to put the hopes of touring and performing on hold, Hulvey, like the rest of the world, found himself in his bedroom, secluded from his friends and family, but it was then that he faced his insecurities and fears and surrendered them to God. From that raw and honest place of deliverance and victory, a new body of work was born.
