Narrative PodcastEp. 82 "I Have to Fit in to be Valuable" Steve Leitch's False NarrativeSteve “Moby” Leitch was a swimmer before he was a Moby, a man before a ministry leader, and a wanderer long before he ever became rooted. Born into the world of evangelical Christianity—his father preaching alongside giants like Billy Graham—Steve grew up in the polished halls of faith, where sin was unspoken and perfection expected. But he found more belonging in the locker room than the pews. While swimmers laughed freely, churchgoers seemed like porcelain. And so he drifted.
Trying to fit in led Steve to addiction—first to connection, then to substances, and finally to isolati...2025-06-2143 min
