Sometimes the ones who preached grace the loudest are the ones who have to learn it the hardest.
In this episode of Slutty Grace, Jeromy Johnson talks with Steve White, a former pastor and seminary-trained worship leader who lost everything, including his ministry, but found grace waiting in the wreckage. Steve’s story is one of failure, exile, and redemption—proof that God’s love doesn’t stop where religion does.
Together they talk about what happens when you’re too human for church, when your brokenness gets you cast out, and how grace keeps showing up in the very places you were told it wouldn’t. It’s the story of the long road toward self-forgiveness, and the discovery that grace doesn’t just forgive, it rebuilds.
If you’ve ever wondered whether deconstruction, forgiveness, and unconditional love can coexist, this conversation might just restore your faith in grace itself.
