Life is hard and things are going to fall apart at some point or another –especially when you’ve experienced trauma in your life. But the problem is that most Christians can’t be seen to have moments when they lose control or even struggle.
By being honest with the challenges he’s faced, Lecrae is going to dive into the hard things no one else will face and talk about what life looks like when you go off the deep end. This show is not for perfect people or people who’ve never made mistakes. This show is for the rest of us who are just trying to pick up the pieces and find a way forward with vulnerability and honesty.
