008: My Chat With Jay Bakker

In this episode I chat with my friend Jay Bakker. Jay is an author, speaker and pastor of Revolution Church. He is the son of Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker who are pretty well known in the Christian Evangelical world. Growing up in the spotlight of his parents made for an interesting life story to say the least. Jay’s story is really unique and inspiring.

Jay is very open about his life, his theology of grace and his mental health journey. I had so much fun talking to Jay! I am happy to call him a friend and I believe he has so much to offer the world. Even if you don’t subscribe to what Jay teaches, I know that everyone can benefit from his journey. Its one of acceptance, forgiveness and authenticity . Who doesn’t want more of that in this world?!? We talk about all this plus music, tattoos, his family, mental health and even our shared Enneagram 4 traits!
