The Band Is Back Together: Stu's Story of Friction and Faith
Updated: 2 hours ago

Released October 29, 2026 · With Mac and The Rev
Betrayal. Conflict. Faith that feels a long way off. Not exactly light listening.
This week Mac and The Rev sit down with Coach Stu. He talks about strained relationships, the changes he’s wrestling with, and the weight he’s been carrying. He’s honest about how betrayal hurt, what questions it left behind, and why God can feel distant when life gets heavy.
No tidy fix here. Just a guy feeling seen, some real courage, and a few small steps toward healing and reconnection.
Pull up a chair. It’s okay if you need a minute.
