    Dr. Sarita Lyons Challenges Lecrae on Sexism in Church Mother Wounds, and Cutting People Off

    Lecrae welcomes Dr. Sarita Lyons back to The Deep End for a conversation about healing from relational wounds and navigating difficult conversations with biblical wisdom. Together, they explore how family brokenness shapes us, the difference between forgiveness and reconciliation, why "protecting your peace" isn't always biblical, and what true healing looks like through the lens of the gospel. They also dive into women in the Church, navigating church hurt without abandoning Scripture, and why our deepest wounds can never be healed apart from Christ. Whether your relationship with your mother has been life giving, complicated, or somewhere in between, this conversation offers biblical wisdom, practical insight, and a hopeful path toward healing. ____ Step Into Reconstruction: https://reconstruct-u.com/ 📱Connect with us on Instagram! - https://www.instagram.com/deependlecrae/ 📱Connect with Lecrae - https://linktr.ee/Lecrae Stream the Deluxe Album: https://music.apple.com/us/album/reconstruction/1828052699 👕 Shop Lecrae Merch: https://lecrae.store/ Stay hydrated throughout your day.

    Tony Evans and Beth Moore Get Honest About the American Church

    Lecrae sits down with Dr. Tony Evans, Beth Moore, and Pastor Jeffrey Johnson Sr. for a rare conversation about the state of the American church—and what it will take to move forward faithfully. Together, they address why younger generations are leaving the faith, the divide between Christianity and American politics, the role of women in ministry, navigating prolonged singleness, enduring painful seasons, and knowing when it's time to pass the mantle. With more than 140 years of combined ministry experience, these Christian leaders share hard-earned wisdom about following Jesus through every season of life.

  7. The John Piper Story I've Never Told

    Jul 3

    The John Piper Story I've Never Told

    "I made an idol out of John Piper." Lecrae doesn't say that lightly. For years, John Piper shaped the way he read the Bible, understood God, wrote music, and approached ministry. His sermons became the soundtrack to an entire season of Lecrae's life. When he finally met Piper, after meeting celebrities, athletes, and presidents, no one left him more starstruck. But admiration has a way of becoming something else. In this episode, Lecrae opens up about growing up without a father. He shares why he was unknowingly looking for affirmation from older spiritual leaders. He reflects on how John Piper became the father figure he didn't realize he was searching for,  and explains what happened when racial tension, church hurt, and life experience forced him to reevaluate everything he once accepted without question. Lecrae also shares how his view of Piper has changed over the years, why he believes gratitude and critique can coexist, and what it looks like to honor the people God used in your life without expecting them to carry what only Jesus can.

  8. I Was Done With Christianity Until He Showed Up.

    Jul 9

    I Was Done With Christianity Until He Showed Up.

    Tim Keller was Lecrae's Michael Jordan. Ten years of sermons, a shared reading list with Kendrick Lamar, and a friendship that started with him shaking like "a stripper in church on Sunday." Then 2016 happened, and Lecrae stopped listening to any theologian who looked like Keller. In week two of his series on the men who shaped his theology, Lecrae gets brutally honest about Doctor Timothy Keller: the missionary sermon that rewired how he saw the city, the years of silence during his own "disorientation," and the moment he came back around to find Keller had been standing in the gap the whole time. He talks about writing a book together, watching Keller invest in Bronx pastors most reformed circles ignored, and the small paperback — The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness — that became a spiritual anchor. And he tells the story of a breakdown in Mexico, a copy of Prodigal Prophet, and an actual whale outside his window. This one is personal, complicated, and honest about a man Lecrae calls one of the great Western Christian thinkers — flaws included. Struggling with intrusive thoughts around your faith?

    For years, the world has known Dwight Howard through highlights, headlines, and controversy. This conversation tells a different story.

    I Asked 4 Christian Singles What's Wrong With Dating

    Is Christian dating actually broken… or are we just doing it wrong? Lecrae sits down with B. Simone, Toni Collier, Chaz Smith, and Matthew Hudson for an honest, hilarious, and surprisingly vulnerable conversation about modern dating, singleness, sex, celibacy, standards, leadership, healing, and what it really looks like to pursue relationships God's way.

    I Interviewed Justin Bieber's Pastor (he surprised me…)

    From the time he was 7 years old, his dad told him: people like you and want to hear what you have to say. Judah Smith spent the next four decades finding out what that actually meant — and what it cost. He became one of the most recognizable preachers in America. Known as Bieber's pastor. Called America's sexiest pastor. Put on the Mount Rushmore of celebrity pastors. And now, sitting across from Lecrae, he says the scariest thing he's ever admitted out loud: his critics might be right about him. In this episode, Judah opens up about growing up 7th generation in a preaching family with real darkness in its history, the moment he realized he'd been preaching about a Jesus he wasn't sure he actually knew, what happened with Mark Driscoll, the spiritual father who asked to get paid, the friends who disappeared when his circumstances changed, and why he's giving the rest of his life to the 50% of Americans who say they'll never step foot in a church. He also announces a Netflix deal live on camera. Nobody in the room knew it was coming.

  12. My Biggest Critic Deserves An Answer.

    Jul 28

    My Biggest Critic Deserves An Answer.

    You've seen the clip. Before Lecrae responds to Marcus Rogers, he asks a harder question: when did we start treating Matthew 18 like a flowchart for public callouts instead of a chapter about not losing your brother? In this episode, Lecrae unpacks the viral clip from Marcus Rogers and uses it as a launching pad for something bigger than one callout: how discernment culture works, where it goes wrong, and what Scripture actually asks of us when we think someone's walking crooked. He walks through his own past failure judging an artist he'd never met, breaks down what Matthew 18 says (and what it doesn't), and separates testing what someone teaches from diagnosing their heart. Along the way: the Killer Mike story, the Kirk Franklin question, the South by Southwest moment people still bring up, and the Will Smith clip everyone's been quoting out of context. _______________________________________________ Step Into Reconstruction: https://reconstruct-u.com/ 📱Connect with us on Instagram! - https://www.instagram.com/deependlecrae/ 📱Connect with Lecrae - https://linktr.ee/Lecrae Stream the Deluxe Album: https://music.apple.com/us/album/reconstruction/1828052699 👕 Shop Lecrae Merch: https://lecrae.store/

    I Won 4 Grammys… But Still Felt Like a Nobody.

    Lecrae has won Grammys, earned platinum records, topped the Billboard charts, and shared rooms with some of the most famous people in the world. Yet even at the height of his success, he still felt insignificant. In this episode, Lecrae reveals the hidden reality of fame and explains why achievement, recognition, and acceptance can never heal insecurity. He shares what finally helped him stop chasing validation, confront the wounds beneath his ambition, and find his identity in who God created him to be.

    Lecrae Has A Deep Convo With Dr. Anita Phillips

    Dr. Anita Phillips spent 27 years married, went through a divorce, and still woke up the next day believing God is good. That's not a talking point. That's a testimony. In this conversation, the NYT bestselling author of The Garden Within, trauma therapist, and lead pastor joins Lecrae for one of the most wide-ranging, deeply personal episodes of The Deep End yet. They go everywhere. From her unlikely journey starting as a math and physics major, to why she'd rather have a spiritually open Hollywood than a religiously closed church. From why anxiety is actually a scarcity mindset, to the moment she was told in her PhD program that she was "misusing the Bible." From a deep breakdown of why the five stages of grief were never designed for survivors, to what it actually looks like to heal when you have every tool and still hit the floor. Dr. Anita doesn't just bring frameworks. She brings receipts from her own life. This one goes deep. The Garden Within is available now wherever books are sold. __ Step Into Reconstruction: https://reconstruct-u.com/ 📱Connect with us on Instagram! -   / deependlecrae 📱Connect with Lecrae - https://linktr.ee/Lecrae Stream the Deluxe Album:   / reconstruction 👕 Shop Lecrae Merch: https://lecrae.store/ _____ Apply for your Master's in Counseling or Ministry Today: https://admissions.richmont.edu Stay hydrated throughout your day.

  15. I Finally Want to Address Everything...

    I Finally Want to Address Everything...

    Some of what you've said about me is right. I want to say which parts, specifically. When Reach Records partnered with Phillip Anthony Mitchell and 2819 Church, it cracked something open — years of assumptions, questions, and criticisms about Lecrae that people had been carrying quietly suddenly got loud. So instead of guessing what people were thinking, he asked. Voice memos. Real questions. No prepared statements. In this episode, Lecrae listens and responds in real time — to the secular collab criticism, the Cross Movement distance, the Reformed theology departure, the Warnock rally confusion, the people who think his music got watered down, and the Christians who've been watching him for 23 years wondering which direction he's really headed. He also speaks directly to the people who are done with church but still craving community — and to anyone who's ever felt like they just can't win on either side. No PR answer. No saving face. Just an honest one. Topics covered: Why the 2819 partnership brought everything to the surface Secular collabs: missionary or compromiser? Why he stepped back from Reformed theology circles Cross Movement, the Ambassadors, and the bitterness he had to own Growing up in public without a roadmap "Die for the Party" and what it costs to be rebuked by the church Mental health stigma in the church For the 24-year-old stuck between the 9-to-5 and the dream A public apology — and what he'd do differently Step Into Reconstruction: https://reconstruct-u.com/ 📱Connect with us on Instagram! -   / deependlecrae 📱Connect with Lecrae - https://linktr.ee/Lecrae Stream the Deluxe Album:   / reconstruction 👕 Shop Lecrae Merch: https://lecrae.store/ Go to Baskandlather.co and use code: deepend for 20% off Get paid EARLY. with the Earn In App. Use code: DEEPENDWITHLECRAE_PODCAST: https://tinyurl.com/3veyjh6j Get 20% off your first order, plus free shipping during the Memorial Day Sale at BollAndBranch.com/deepend

    Avery Austin Jr. — known online as GodLogic — has 500K+ subscribers and streams apologetics debates live three times a week. He grew up as a preacher's kid in Lancaster, California. Got ordained at 20. Got stumped by a Jehovah's Witness at a community college. And decided the whole church needed to get equipped. In this episode of The Deep End, Lecrae plays TikTok devil's advocate — throwing Islam's best arguments, Hebrew Israelite talking points, and the problem of evil at GodLogic live. He answers every single one. They also go deep on: what happens to the souls you never hear from again, the gap between intellectual certainty and real faith, and what GodLogic prays for after every stream. ------------- _______________________________________________ Step Into Reconstruction: https://reconstruct-u.com/ 📱Connect with us on Instagram! -   / deependlecrae   📱Connect with Lecrae - https://linktr.ee/Lecrae Stream the Deluxe Album:   / reconstruction   👕 Shop Lecrae Merch: https://lecrae.store/ _______________________________________________ Get paid EARLY. with the Earn In App. Use code: DEEPENDWITHLECRAE_PODCAST: https://tinyurl.com/3veyjh6j Reclaim your faith from OCD.

    Bible Scholar Challenges Lecrae on Nephilim, Demons, & Book of Enoch

    What if Genesis is way bigger than you were taught? Not just Adam, Eve, and a talking snake — but fallen angels, half-human giants, divine councils, and a cosmic war that's still happening right now. Dr. Joel Muddamalle (PhD, theologian, bestselling author of The Unseen Battle) sits down with Lecrae to break down what most Christians were never taught about Genesis 6, the Nephilim, the sons of God, the Book of Enoch, and why the ancient world understood the Bible in ways that would completely blow your modern mind. This is Part 1. Part 2 gets into demons and their real-world impact. In this episode: Why Genesis has 3 "falls", not just one Who the "sons of God" in Genesis 6 actually were The Nephilim: what they were, what happened to them, and whether remnants survived the flood The Divine Council worldview and the scholarship of Dr. Michael Heizer The Book of Enoch: what it is, why it matters, and why it's not in your Bible The Tower of Babel and where the gods of the nations came from Why the earliest church held views your pastor probably never mentioned The cosmic spiritual war behind the division you see in the world today Dr. Joel Muddamalle is a PhD theologian, bestselling author, Director of Theology & Research at Proverbs 31 Ministries, co-host of Therapy & Theology, and a preaching team member at Transformation Church with Pastor Derwin Gray. His book The Unseen Battle is his doctoral dissertation turned into a resource for everyday believers. _______________________________________________ 📱Follow our new instagram! - https://www.instagram.com/deependlecr... 📱Connect with Lecrae - https://linktr.ee/Lecrae 📮 Join the conversation… Exclusive previews, discounts, bonus content, and more: https://deependwithlecrae.com/ Stream the Album: https://music.apple.com/us/album/reconstruction/1828052699 👕 Shop Lecrae Merch: https://lecrae.store/ ________________________________________________ Protect your family today at meetfabric.com/lecrae Reclaim your faith from OCD.
