Jeff Bettger (aka Jeff Suffering) has told his story many times, but never with such As The Story Grows swagger. Jeff Suffering Bettger is getting some punk rock back into this story. J Suffering discusses a little more of the Mark Driscoll and Mars Hill Church and surviving a cult stuff, the "raft of dead monkeys" title origin story, Jeff Bettger's unique way of creating and releasing new music and Jeff recants his embarrassment for old Ninety Pound Wuss.
