I Made $1 Mil A Day as a Dirty Cop - Then I Found Jesus.

This is the B-Side of culture, conversation, & chaos.

Grammy-winning artist and author Jonathan McReynolds joins Lecrae for one of the most vulnerable and eye-opening conversations yet. From sold-out tours and public accolades to private burnout and breakdowns, Jonathan opens up about what it really costs to “climb the mountain” of success—and why coming down might be the most spiritual move of all.

In this episode, we discuss:

<ul>
<li>Why fame is more isolating than it looks</li>
<li>The hidden dangers of chasing greatness instead of goodness</li>
<li>How celebrity culture dehumanizes artists</li>
<li>The pain of not having a spiritual father figure—and becoming one anyway</li>
<li>Dating while in the spotlight and guarding your heart from perception-drunk relationships</li>
<li>Why humility—not just theology—is what saves us from ourselves</li>
</ul>

This is a must-watch for anyone wrestling with purpose, platform, or pressure.
