Who he is
Lecrae is a Grammy-winning artist and the co-founder and president of Reach Records. He has written two New York Times bestsellers, Unashamed and I Am Restored.
He is here for the same reason Broussard and Baraka are: he does this in public, at volume, with people who are not being polite. But he brings something neither of them does. He is the one who says his own faith was, in his word, critically damaged, and describes what put it back.
What you are getting in this dossier
The four-question sequence he walks skeptics through, which stops in the same place every time. The move he makes instead of arguing, and why it works. What he did in an actual prison that no apologist would think to do. The analogy that dismantles the whole objection in about ten seconds. And the clean distinction on forgiveness.
The four questions
He does not lead with a rebuttal. He leads with a question, and then keeps asking.
"Mostly when I encounter people like that, first, I'll challenge their perspective, and I'll say, 'Now, where did you hear this?' Or, 'Why do you think that?'"
