Explaining Lecrae's Stance and Other Christian Music Controversies
The deeper I wade into conversations about Christian influencers — faith, politics, music — the messier it all becomes. This week’s episode is no exception. I found myself asking a question that feels increasingly important in our current Christian climate:
What do we actually know… versus what do we think we’ve heard?
In this episode of Honest Christian Conversations, I take a closer look at Lecrae — his faith, his public statements, and the assumptions many of us carry about him. When someone we respect says hard things or seems to shift, it can be deeply unsettling. Sometimes it even feels like betrayal.
And that tension doesn’t stop with one artist.
Pastors, podcasters, authors, worship leaders — they’re all human. So what do we do when the people we look up to in faith disappoint us? How do we process confusion without walking away from Jesus?

Ana is the host of the Honest Christian Conversations podcast and a prodigal saved by God’s unending grace.
She grew up in a legalistic Christian home where asking questions often felt wrong. In her early twenties, overwhelmed by confusion and hurt, she walked away from her faith. Yet even then, God’s love never stopped pursuing her. At thirty years old—and after a painful second divorce—He brought her back to himself, and she has never looked back.
As Ana returned to Christ, she began rebuilding her faith from the ground up and asked the questions she once feared to ask. Along that journey, she discovered inconsistencies, misplaced teachings, and even lies woven into the Christianity she grew up with. Instead of destroying her faith, this only deepened it. Out of that discovery, she founded Honest Christian Conversations. Ana's heart is to help others navigate the same tension she once lived with: wanting to know the real Jesus while sorting through the noise of deceptive teachings, spiritual manipulation, and “wolves in sheep’s clothing.”
Everything she creates flows from gratitude for the God who rescued her, restored her, and continues to shape her into who He intended her to be.
