What if healing doesn’t come in a moment… but throughendurance?

In this episode of Savage Jesus with Cece, I sit downwith Gerald Collins to talk about grief, depression, faith, and what it actually takes to keep going when life feels heavy.

Gerald is an endurance coach and the founder of RunRevCoaching, a platform built to help people navigate mental health struggles through movement, structure, and support. He started running as a way to cope with the grief of losing his mother, and it became something much deeper.

We talk about living with long-term depression, why healingis not instant, and how faith is often less about breakthrough and more about endurance.

In this episode of Savage Jesus with Cece, I sit down withKevin Creighton to talk about masculinity, responsibility, redemption, and faith in a world where many men feel lost, directionless, or stuck. Kevin is a full-time gunwriter, firearms instructor, and author who has spent years writing about responsibility, protection, and discipline.

He brings a perspective shaped by real-world experience, not theory. We also talk about his novel Salvation, which explores the tension between justice, vengeance, and redemptionthrough the lives of both a hero and a villain. This conversation challenges what we think we know about strength, purpose, and what it actually means to change.

What happens when you make a promise to God… and then go back to the same habits?

In this episode of Savage Jesus with Cece, I sit down with Steven McCormick to talk about addiction, faith, guilt, and what it looks like to keep walking with God when your life hasn’t been consistent.

Steven shares his story of struggling with alcohol, cryingout to God in moments of desperation, and the reality of going back to old habits even after powerful encounters.

We also talk about the tension between guilt and grace, thepressure people feel to “get it right,” and the truth that faith is not about perfection, but persistence.

If your faith is real but your life has gone back and forth,this conversation is for you.

He describes his faith as real but imperfect, shaped throughlife, pressure, mistakes, and moments where he had to wrestle with God honestly.

Steven’s story speaks to anyone who has struggled withconsistency, guilt, and the tension between who they want to be and where they actually are.
