“I Thought I Was the Only Messed-Up Guy in the Church” – Mark Hall, Casting Crowns
Mark Hall, frontman and songwriter for Casting Crowns joins us for an honest conversation. He talks about how, as a teenager, he felt alone because everybody at church hid their problems.
He shares his personal battle with cancer and what it was like to sing his own lyrics “Hold it all together. Everybody needs you strong” from his song “Just Be Held,” before anyone knew about his cancer diagnosis.
He talks about the time he was tempted to end it all as well as sharing some of the stories behind some of their songs. He’s honest and deep and it’s a joy to have this time with him.
