What happens when a viral street evangelist comes face-to-face with the same pressure that breaks so many? In this raw and unfiltered conversation, we are joined by special guest @thebrycecrawford just hours after he touched down for the first time ever in Aotearoa, New Zealand.
Bryce sat down with us just before his @BryceCrawfordPodcast Auckland event to discuss being the man in front of the camera, and the heart behind the viral clips.
Bryce doesn't hold back as he takes us through his "unraveling" in 2020, a year that saw him battling crippling anxiety and a bitter heart toward religion. He shares the exact moment a supernatural encounter in a breakfast restaurant became the "antidote" to his desire to end his life, leading to over five years of freedom from depression.
In this episode, Bryce gives us an inside look at:
The Balance of Grace and Truth: Why he moved away from "Graceland" and learned to "pull the gold" out of people while still standing firm in the Gospel.
The Trap of Social Media: How he survives the "pedestal of pride" by surrounding himself with people who aren’t impressed by his numbers.
The Sting of Accountability: Why he values mentors who "wound him with their words for the sake of his soul."
A massive thank you to Bryce Crawford for stopping by the studio, for his radical honesty, and for teaching us a bit about what it means to be a "sir" (and even learning a little Te Reo Māori along the way!).
