Christian Rock Star to LGBTQ Advocate: Trey Pearson on Rediscovering His Calling After Deconstruction

Trey Pearson, front man of the Christian rock band Everyday Sunday, sold hundreds of thousands of records, amassed millions of streams, and toured all over the world. Then, he came out of the closet and made national headlines.

Trey's announcement sparked a national conversation, including a television appearance on The View and coverage from The New York Times, Billboard Magazine, CNN, and more. At one point, he was the #1 trending topic worldwide on Facebook.

I had him on the show today to talk about reconnecting with your calling after deconstruction, finding real community, and what it means to create from a place of wholeness instead of performance.
