How do we bounce back from hardships, frailties and criticisms all while staying true to who we are? Natalie Manuel Lee spends time with Grammy Award winning rap artist Lecrae, in his hometown of Atlanta. Lecrae’s own journey toward restoration has driven him to become a force for social justice and to deliver messages of hope through his music. Lecrae takes us through an honest journey of forgiveness and healing as we visit his studio and a community close to his heart.
Culture often dictates that our worth, path and identity are determined by our race, our gender, the things we’ve done, and the things that have been done to us. In this series, host Natalie Manuel Lee, digs beneath the surface to uncover what it really means to be bold, transparent and confront our shame. She speaks with people at the top of their industry, from the realms of music, radio, politics, television and philosophy to find out how they navigate shame and translate their hardships into opportunities to refine instead of define themselves.
Quote:
“I’m interested in exploring ideas of secrecy, confession and vulnerability and how they help or hinder transformation. Is airing our dirty laundry necessary for the health of our soul, even if it doesn’t result in forgiveness and reconciliation? What does the hard work of transformation look like?”

"What did Gucci do for you?"
"Nothing."
I felt that.
“it’s hard to fight someone who’s outdoing you in love” WOW!
"I need you to get well so that you can give them what I have given you." I truly felt that.
There's a verse that's like that. It basically tells us that since God gave us comfort in our bad times we should do it for others as well
Being a Black Christian in predominantly white Christian spaces, especially ones where racism thrives, can be a very lonely, painful and faith-destroying experience. I've had at least three of the same type of crises that Lecrae describes in this interview and it is harrowing and awful. One thing I've learned is that it's so important for Black Christians to remind themselves of the God we serve. He is a God of love and He CARES about justice, even if many of His own people don't. So long as we remember that in this world we will have trouble, that our own brothers and sisters will often turn against us but even despite that God has overcome the world...so long as we put our trust in God and not in people, we will be able to soldier on and continue living into the life God has called us to.
Thanks so much for this interview, I know it will help a lot of people.
Stay strong u created in gods image you got brothers and sisters maybe not in the same area gods ppl are all over ! I unite in prayer over ur coming and going and peace of God to take over u mind spirit and soul u got a purpose keep ur head up! Blessings
Sending you God’s love; protection and encouragement 🙌🏾
My objectives using wonderful words of life found in the attached prayer for unity is to encourage the disheartened and help the weak by being patient with everyone because our contract with life is brokered with fragility, sadness and anxiety.
On a balcony of space STEPPED A PURE AND HOLY GOD. IN AWESOME SOLITUDE YOU STOOD ALONE. Not one faint star to give YOU light; just endless darkness, it was blackest night. But somehow in the darkness YOU COULD SEE.
YOU SAW mountains high and lofty, YOU SAW valleys lush and green. YOU SAW babbling brooks, and wildflowers grow, YOU EVEN HEARD a robin sing. Then through YOUR COMPASSION STANDING OUT THERE IN YOUR TOMORROW, YOU SAW forum's visitors. 🥰
YOU SAW them as sinners because there is no intrinsic righteousness in any of us due to Adam’s sin. YOU SAW them as they grew from a baby into adulthood due to YOUR HANDS OF MERCY. 🥰 YOU SAW them pursuing a career path for the purpose of obtaining the gains of the world not realizing that it is a loss compared to what YOU DID on the cross. YOU SAW them working long and laboring hard to receive the grace by justification even though YOU stated, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."(John 6:29 KJV) YOU SAW the unwillingness to accept YOUR PLAN OF SALVATION THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST. YOU SAW them living with the guilt of committing crimes to the heart. YOU SAW them enduring personal crisis. YOU SAW the weight of the burden on their hearts with each tribulation. YOU SAW them seeking comfort from the above mentioned topography, ONE OF THE MANY MARVELS YOUR PERFECT HANDS HAVE MADE. 👏👏👏 YOU SAW their worries about tomorrow.
If their hearts were a window that they could look through, oh the pains and scars they would see. What a cruel fate the skin gives as a mask to the inward pain. But the skin couldn’t cover THE SUFFERING YOUR ONE AND ONLY SON BORED on the cross as PAYMENT for all our sins because HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ALONE HAD THE MERIT TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR HOLINESS. Indeed, ONLY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SUFFICIENT TO SAVE us from this present evil world as evidenced by Mary's song of praise. "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1:46-47 KJV) Awesome thanks to YOUR GREAT PARDON for being easy on the heart. 🥰
They have seen a lot of crazy things done in YOUR NAME. For example, the father of lies futile attempts to make crooked the right ways of the LORD to turn people away from faith in the WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST ALONE. How can anyone bear the thought of his or her life story detracting from the GLORY AND HONOR KNOWN TO BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE? As a consequence, YOU ARE A MYSTERY OF GREAT MYSTERY to them. Despite this conviction, YOU ARE MINDFUL of them as evidenced by the fact that YOUR JUDGEMENT is not speedy, allowing them to pursue the desires of the flesh.
They are aware of hypocrisy in religious assemblies that like to be seen and heard. In addition, secular education teaches that there is no right and wrong, if GOD exists there is no way of relating to HIM, and moral standards shift according to the whims of fashion. Therefore, their minds are conditioned to question everything this world has to offer including “THY POWER THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE DISPLAYED.” They have accepted the heavy burden of dealing with the troubles of this life and seeks to know another way, YOU THE GREAT COMFORTER TO ALL who did receive YOU as their personal SAVIOR. Still, YOU have shown them NEW MERCY every day with each thought they make and each breath they take.
Unfortunately, like the prodigal son, we are all guilty of wandering far from YOU LORD because the negative experiences of our lives tend to build roadblocks to the TRUTH. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them to identify the way, truth, and eternal life (that is YOU). Since to know and follow your SPIRIT is more exciting than any 007 movie, and YOU DELIGHT MAKING the ordinary into extraordinary. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST MAKE them understand that there is no way around YOUR TRUTH, and that there is something about YOUR NAME. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them defeat in their minds what is false in YOUR EYES.
LORD GUIDE their thoughts to know that the path of sin is hard on their hearts for the purpose of crying out to YOU to know the joy, peace of having the heavy burden LIFTED by THE GOD OF PEACE I AM, and ANCHOR their souls in THE HAVEN OF REST. In other words, LORD use the storms in their lives to get a hold of them to trust YOU and believe. In truth, YOU ARE THE JOY that seekest them through pain.
LORD HELP their fainting hearts to believe that YOU, who was slain on the cross over 2000 years ago has the POWER TO CHANGE lives today through the INSTANTANEOUS GREAT FAVOR from GOD to the house of Israel made known in believers by YOU to make YOUR NAME EVERLASTING. 🥰 For as the statue liberates the citizens so the cross liberates the soul. ONLY YOU can calm the trouble waters of the mind when one admits to wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, JESUS IS LORD, and believes in the heart that GOD RAISED HIM from the dead TO LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt away from the heart in accordance to YOUR WORD found in Psalm 51:1-10 KJV. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 O, the wonder of it all to experience within the flesh the feeling of a tree being cut back/pruned inorder for it to grow stronger and more beautiful after meditating on the words of said Psalm. 🥰🙌
LORD MAKE them know that ONLY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, through the experience of a new birth within believers, can prevent the family circle from being broken because THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE YOU HAVE GRANTED means a chapter of their lives is decided. Creation sings the rebirth song for them yearly, through YOUR PROMISE of springtime, giving rise to the idea that by the mention of YOUR NAME flowers grow, and the desert blooms again. 🥰
LORD GUIDE their understanding of words to use to come into YOUR PRESENCE with an honest reverence of WHO YOU ARE to experience the beauty that time can't erase YOUR WISDOM resting on their faces. LORD STRENGTHEN their determination to never waiver in efforts to search for YOU because the wages of sin is too high for anyone to pay. Additionally, THE KING OF KINGS is needed in their hearts to learn how to expand their capacity to love for YOU are LOVE in any language. 🥰 Once they learn to speak it with boldness through YOUR WONDERFUL COUNSELING all the world will hear, and know that LOVE is the language of their hearts. So LORD, KEEP KNOCKING on their doors until they let YOU in to know hardships and struggles will end with a GREAT CELEBRATION WITH YOU. 🥰🙌
If one believes faith cannot be forced, YOU WILL GIVE that individual over to the stubborn heart to follow own counsel which will surely fail him or her to the extent that the punishment will last forever found in Psalms 81 NIV. Given this, I pray that YOU WILL MAKE that person see that this feeling is wasted for a world in which we become strangers as we age, gives us thrills instead of peace, aims to solve a problem but creates another, and unrest surges with each passing generation. Shed some light into their broken hearts for YOU ARE THE GREAT JEHOVAH, THE GOD THAT HEALETH thee.
Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again, I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh.
O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
Forgiveness is not acceptance 🙏🏽
“I don’t believe in balance. I believe in tension” not even 5 mins in and a word!
My favorite interview on Hillsong!!! Love Lecrae!
So glad you love it! Stay tuned for more 😊✨
Lecrae is so real at this.... inspiration
Lecrae is my favorite artist because I personally connect with him so much more then any other artist. Worship music can be powerful but Christian hip hop, especially Lecrae, makes me feel included in the community of God. This was amazing!
Natalie is such a good interviewer!!!! So present, so introspective. I thought 30 minutes was a bit too long, but couldn’t stop watching!!! So amazing 😍
Hillsong is a Christian channel. They should choose a host that is more faithfully centered on Christ. Lecrae was Christ-centered, though.
Crying by the end as well . Beautiful. God is good . Build a relationship with him or your higher power source. Love yourself . Bless all that are in pain or struggling right now 🙏🏻 not a easy life but it can be beautiful. Up to you. Choose paths wisely
Healing from pain and shame is possible and available to anyone and everyone that chooses to confront it. Hiding will never allow for healing. The grace of God is His empowerment to us to deal with all the hidden places in our hearts. 👑❤️
Amen
So happy to see someone famous talk about Jesus and how he is Lord and savior ❤️ So happy to see God’s kingdom growing
"I need you to get well , so you can give them what I've given you"
This episode is so rich.
I lost my superficial religious behavior in the last few months & found an honest and sincere relationship with Christ.
2020 had a lot of pain, but man did it offer us depth !
Prayed for you brother.
So glad you came back, around🙏🏽🙌🏽
So much respect for him sharing his life and sharing the ups and the downs. So real, and so vulnerable. God can take any situation and turn it for good. That’s how great his love is for us! What a story ❤️
Man!! that was such a real, refreshing and humbling interview.
Loved every bit of it.
“Real Leaders lead in vulnerability” - Lecrae
God bless your journey Lecrae, and keep up the life changing work Natalie 🙌🏾
Revelation 12:11
And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life even when faced with death.
When I tell you that Lecrae's testimony/transparency is breath taking, that is truly an understatement! To have faith the way he did just to be dropped down to nothing by the very people that pumped him up is beyond a blessing! Now, he can truly begin to live a life that bears much fruit for the Kingdom because the the very people that pumped him up to be the Christian they wanted him to be now demonizes him. Now he can do away with the traditions of men and be about the Father's business thus breaking every shackle that was on him by them! (false humility, self-righteousness, etc...)
Matthew 23:15 “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, because you travel around on sea and land to make one proselyte; and when he becomes one, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves.
That is what they did to Lecrae but now he is FREE! Praise Yahushua!! Now, he is truly doing the work of the Kingdom by reaching the sick as Yahushua did and they demonize him just like they did Yahushua for interacting with the prostitutes, fornicators and sharing the Gospel in a way they can hear! He who has ears hear to hear, let him hear....
God is not transactional, He is relational. He works you through it. Thanks Lecrea
"New opportunity to be a new version of yourself" So profound. I love Lecrae and this channel.
Amazing episode. The relationship with each other demonstrated in the cross and the analogy used for the cost designer t-shirt and being wonderfully made are things that will stay with me x
I'm a white female and been in church my whole life.. I love Jesus.. and I absolutely saw the scary part of the cloud over way too many family and other Christians too. I yelled out and tried to fight it and I knew the truth though.. I was so upset with the whole ( white evangelical) stuff.. Oray for them. We are all sinners.. But if Jan 6 did not show them..then pray and move on.. The lost..That is our biggest concern..
"Deny yourself, take up your cross and follow me."- Jesus
Jesus is simply the best! The Son of God speaks as is The Truth!!!!
Hands down this was the best interview yet! wow! I`ve never seen someone on camera be so authentic and impart such truth! Incredible!
The quality, from content to production..... host to guest, clearly chosen so well or maybe gel too well with subject theme; forgiveness/shame. Now we only need numbers: let’s support our own, such a fully fleshed beautiful two seasons. Man, damn i LOVE this show. (Not only the host, the whole damn team; BEST!)
This was so compelling and great to hear. Lecrae is so transparent and just wow! So many gems dropped! If humanity can just go deeper and call on GOD! Thank you for this amazing interview.
Yes I felt that statement as well getting well so we can share what God put in us for the world.. smh Amen 🙏 🙌
this is amazing and such a blessing. love what’s going on here and thank the Lord for it ✝️
The best interview!🙌🏾 I’m definitely going to buy his book after this one
I'm mad at myself for not knowing his music but the son of God I'm seeing is amazing. I felt everything in this interview and will continue to push thru and go "feed His sheep". Wow. Go's is an awesome God who reigns from heaven with wisdom, power and love. Amen. "He's not transactional, He's relational". AMEN
I can't get enough of this series. Bring on episode 2!
So true in reguards to social media, absolutely needs some MAJOR changes in reguards to the infrastructure of it all. It is wrecking our society in reguards to people getting so confused on what is true and what is not true. Regulations need put in place somehow.. Lecrae, your message is strong keep going with the momentum God has given you.
Crae is the 🐐.. started watching and i love it already
Lecrae is a very wise man. Hats off!
Soooo good, Natalie. Absolutely loved this interview and so glad you were able to do it before everything happened this year.
I love Lecrae music
Straight up best 1 my fave all time rapper Lecrae this guy showed me what being black & on fire for God looks like and Natalie you did such a great job and asked really powerful questions and held & maintained the entire conversation really excellently 👏 love my Hillsong church shout out from Sydney Hills campus ❤
What a great episode, to start us off in the journey of Shame... Blessings us with such amazing tools, to break us free from this culture and society... Thank you
Natalie Now is my fav...what a super super platform. Rich untold stories.. Truths.. Thank you
Great interview! Love this! 😊❤️
God isn’t transactional, He’s relational. 🙌🏽
Wow what he said at 14.56 to 15.06 was so deep I love that man. That is a problem if we don't talk to him how does he know what we need when we don't communicate
I need to remember this! It’s not what you did or didn’t do, it’s how you were created, wonderfully and faithfully! 🤍
That interview was so refreshing! 🙌🏾
Lecrea has been such an inspiration to me ever since the first time I’ve ever heard a song of his 13 years ago, “Praying for you.” I admire how honest he is with his life and that makes his purpose even greater. He speaks wisdom and that can only come from going through experiences that makes him who he is today and trusting God through out his whole process. I have so much more to say about how much I’ve learned from Lecrea but as of now I would just like to say regardless of what you’ve been through thank you for always rising back and sticking to what God commands of you to do.
love Lecrae. so transparent. Thank God for his ministry. We need his voice.
This is an incredible series!!! I'm so glad I found it. Thank you so much for having these tough conversations and making them available to everyone.
This interview is soo loaded I learnt a lot,wrote it down cause I still have to process them + I love d woman interviewing it's seems like she has a big heart
Lecrae, I connect so much with patience and grace you give that you realize has been extended to you. Its so important to realize that I'm not any better or any more protected from the sin in this world stemming from our eternal enemy. Give people grace and be patient through their process and heap unfathomable love on instead. Soooo good!
This was powerful all around .. this lifted me up ... Natalie you're awesome @ what you do .... its fire watching the interviewer and interviewee being moved equally
This really inspired me,cos I'm going through these same struggles right now,God bless you for this.
Go feed my sheep. WOOOOOOH!!! Thank you Lacrae & Natalie!
Amazing episode and Natalie is an amazing interviewer x
Lecrae 🔥🕊 beautiful soul.
He’s always consistent.
My favorite episode to date. Thank you Natalie and your team for seeing the need to have these conversations. We can't stop having them. We can learn so much from each other as we navigate through our walk with Him. :)
Ugh this made me tear up🤧🤧Lecrae God bless your heart. Jesus is really being glorified
Hi Nat, im from indonesia and i found so many things i can relate to from your interview. Thank you 🙏🏻
I really enjoyed this interview. Thank you for keeping it real Lecrae, God got you.😊
That's a good question. I think we should speak our pain wisely. I also think we should devolop the life saving tool of Grace, Jesus, And a new found hope in what Christ Jesus can do.
Yess Sirr you better drop these gems ! I think this is the story of most of us.
It's hard to fight with somebody who's outdoing you in love-lecrae

We have to be broken do the lost. There was so many times I thought gee...thanks. Franklin G.. And others. Now we have 1o0 x more.. To witness too. None of us are sinless.. Both parties are sinners.. But oh my it was bad.
