Talking Restoration with Lecrae

Bethany Hamilton

Lecrae is a father, a husband, and a super talented musical artist. His music frequently gets me fired up to go surf, and I listen to it when I’m working out. I get stoked on his song “Coming in Hot” for a workout or pre-surf!

We had this conversation on May 15th, 2020 (prior to the nationwide protests for justice) and we wanted to share it with you today. I hope it brings you some light and encouragement!

If you listen to his music, you’ll know Lecrae has been through a lot – growing up without his dad, struggling with drugs at one point, relationship problems, depression – he sings about it all. In our conversation, he shares how God brought him through – how God is all about RESTORATION and is still doing that work in his life each day!

One of my greatest goals in life is to share what it is to live an Unstoppable life and Lecrae is a great example of living UNSTOPPABLE!

This conversation is 44 minutes, so put in those earbuds/pods and go for a walk/hike, or pull in your spouse or friend to join you on the couch. I’m sure it will be a gift to you like it was to me.

We talk about:

Lecrae’s new album, Restoration
Lecrae’s childhood story and testimony
Why he prioritizes self-care
Parenting – honesty, apologies & forgiveness
One of my fav songs of his “Can’t Stop Me Now“
Depression – how he found his peace and identity
Friendships – how they’ve been key for both of us
What I do with the “What if’s”?
Commitment – how God is committed to us
The meaning of “Restoration”
Why Lecrae tattooed Romans 1:16 on his arm
Why Vulnerability and Honesty are the core values for Lecrae

Lecrae and I come from such different backgrounds, but share much in common in the realm of overcoming and living a passionate life. All of our choices, life circumstances, our reactions, overcoming and community bring us to where we are today. I believe beauty and purpose can come from the pain.

Stay tuned for his newest album, Restoration, to be released any day now! Check out his new single “Set Me Free“.

Be Unstoppable – like Lecrae!
