Trevor Talks

If you’ve heard Fit For A King’s new album The Hell We Create, you know it’s musically and thematically heavy. After listening to this episode, you’ll understand why.

Ryan Kirby has been fronting the Texas-based metalcore band since 2010. With his vocals at the helm, Fit For A King has become one of Solid State Records’ flagship bands, known for punishing breakdowns and live shows to match. Although they’ve never shied away from heaviness — musically or thematically — their new album The Hell We Create takes the weight to the next level.

In this episode, you’ll hear about the journeys into various kinds of hells that fueled the band’s most vulnerable and visceral album yet. From facing his wife’s near-death experience, to vicarious trauma through adopting children, to enduring years without live music due to the pandemic, Ryan Kirby has been to countless personal lows in the last two years. The album and this conversation map the way through that pain — and the way out.

Kayla Stoecklein, Christian Wilson, and host Trevor Tyson all have something in common: they’ve lost someone close to them to suicide.

For Kayla, it was her husband Andrew. For Christian, it was his brother Jarrid. Both were pastors and passionate mental health advocates who left behind a legacy of redemptive grief for everyone who loved them and learned from them.

As someone who has survived love ones’ deaths by suicide also, on this episode Trevor creates a safe, sacred space for conversation. What results is healing and light shed on the often-stigmatized topic of mental health and suicide in the church.

Cody Carnes was already one of the most experienced and respected worship leaders in the country. Then the meteoric 2020 rise of “The Blessing” cemented his voice as timely and life-giving for the church.

Since he exploded onto the scene nearly 20 years ago, Lecrae has become the undisputed leader of Christian hip hop. With a slew of Dove awards, Grammy awards, Stellar awards, and crossover mainstream success, Lecrae has earned his place as the genre’s standard-setter. He’s even led the industry as the founder of Reach Records. But after all those accomplishments, this lyricist still has something new to say.

That’s what you’ll hear on “Spread the Opps,” the brand new single that is the first taste of the upcoming Church Clothes Vol 4.

In a candid conversation on this week’s episode, Lecrae offers a transparent look at his journey through deconstruction into reconstruction. He explains how a mental health crisis ultimately fueled rebirth. Through all of it, the genre giant offers clarifying perspective on what’s truly worth investing in.

Lecrae’s music is self-described as unorthodox, rough around the edges, but all in a righteous and healthy way. Stream “Spread the Opps” now: https://lecrae.ffm.to/opps.OFP

Sonya Hunter’s story is a gift to anyone wondering how to survive the unsurvivable. As a wife and young mother, Sonya felt like she had her dream life. That life was shattered in an instant with a car crash that delivered devastating loss: she lost a son and her husband in the same moment. Doctors told her that her surviving son, Conner, wouldn’t live through the night. It’s been 16 years, and Conner is still proving that dire prediction wrong, one day at a time. Piece by piece, Sonya has watched God reform the pieces of her old life into something uniquely, beautifully new.

That process of redemptive purpose through unimaginable pain is captured in her book Unsurvivable: Even in the darkest storm, always find your rainbow. She gives the Trevor Talks family a glimpse of that journey on this latest episode, offering the wisdom, grace, and courage of a woman who has survived the storm.

Anne Wilson’s journey into music has been one of redemptive plot twists. Before the breakaway success of her viral hit “My Jesus,” Anne was just a sister mourning the sudden, tragic loss of her brother.

Anne was 15 when her brother Jacob died in a car accident. Despite never being drawn to music before, Anne found herself compelled to worship through song as she processed her grief. The very first time she ever sang publicly was at her brother’s funeral. Just a few years later, she had a record deal— and a hit that offered comfort to others walking their own grief journeys.

We follow that journey from heartbreak into hope on this episode of Trevor Talks, soaking in all the wisdom that this 20-year-old songstress has to offer.

Naomi Raine is the powerhouse voice best known as one of the core members of Grammy-award-winning group Maverick City Music. But, with her debut solo album, Journey, she’s bringing her voice to center stage and sharing her story. Growing up in Queens as the daughter of worship leaders, Naomi’s life has never been without music. She sang publicly for the first time at a major gospel concert at just 2 years old.

However, her path into the vibrant music ministry that has impacted the world was not always smooth. An unexpected pregnancy at 18 planted social alienation and deep-held shame. But on this episode of Trevor Talks, Naomi shares how grace has made every bump in the road level.

As we gratefully celebrate 100 episodes of Trevor Talks, take a deep dive with us into the heart and the healing found in the songs on Journey.
