Podcasts about Front Porch Step

Here, I talk with my friend Jake McElfresh of Front Porch Step for his first interview in 8 years following a scandal that ruined his career in 2014.   I was a pop-punk kid back then and made an idol of music before Jesus, living by the mantra “music saved my life” and was into FPS, using it as a way to cope during a breakup as well as the death of my grandmother — so this is a full circle moment, now that we are both born again disciples of Jesus Christ.   In this discussion, he shares how he grew up, what his journey with God looked like throughout his life — how he was a “Christian," thinking that saying a sinner's prayer meant he would go to heaven — he describes how his parents divorce affected his perspective of women, and how he got into the music scene.   From there, he speaks on his Front Porch Step career, the depraved man he was, and the gritty details of the scandal. He so vulnerably and honestly shares how it all spiraled and ultimately sent him right to rock bottom, both personally and professionally.   But that is where Jesus met Him: at the end of himself. Much later, Jake felt the unconditional love of Christ for the first time, realizing that no matter what he did, God would love and forgive him.   Jake eventually surrendered in repentance, and laid it all at the foot of the cross, turning his life around by the grace of God. His walk with Jesus led him to his wife Shanelle. He tells us the intimate story of how they met, how he courted her, and how they eventually married.   Sharing Jake's story is about demonstrating what the gospel actually is, because his testimony shows the Heart of the Father. No one is beyond redemption.   What God has done in his life is the epitome of the old man being crucified, and the new man being resurrected in Christ.   When the carnal world offers no mercy, God offers mercy as we receive His Truth in faith. That is why Jesus' free gift of salvation is so precious.   Each of us needs a Savior that we are ALL EQUALLY undeserving to have. And yet, when we have Him, there is no condemnation. He makes us a new creation, not because of who we are but because of who He is.   We pray the Lord will use this to plant seeds of faith.   --   + JAKE'S INSTAGRAM & YOUTUBE @frontporchstep   + MY INSTAGRAM: @angelamarireucci   + SOW INTO HEAVEN & HEALING PODCAST MINISTRY AND BECOME A FINANCIAL PARTNER VIA… - DONOR BOX - STRIPE - VENMO @angelamarieucci

Often when allegations of sexual misconduct come out, it is reported on by the media and receives considerable backlash from the music community. In some cases, the community rallies together to dethrone the artists from their platform, in the case of PWR BTTM in 2017 and Burger Records in 2020. But in many cases, the artists are let off easily with a blanket apology and continue to release music with little effect to their career, like emo singer Front Porch Step. We take a deeper look into these cases and why sexual misconduct reoccurs at alarming rates in the music industry. What is the psychology behind this? How has this behavior been perpetrated across decades? How can this behavior be stopped and prevented? What is accountability and how do we apply it effectively? While it's a difficult conversation, it's imperative that we continue having it, not just when allegations come out, but year-round. If we are to truly change the music industry into a safe environment for all, then all sectors of the industry from artists to CEOs have a responsibility to learn, call out, make changes and educate their peers and employees at all levels.

This week touches on some Apple Music follow-up: what's it like with the app a week in? Are we still using it? What are the hang ups? Why does the iOS app not respect album artwork selections? What are our favorite smart playlists? Then we talk a little about what albums we're anticipating most for the rest of the year building on the discussion last week of our favorite albums of 2015 so far (and the full staff lists that were posted this week). Then there's some discussion about bands that Thomas sort of missed out on and bands Jason missed out on and we discuss -- live -- solutions to rectify this tear in the music force fabric. We end this week talking about Front Porch Step, Warped Tour, and everything that happened since our last episode.

Raw, unfiltered, uncut. This conversation I had with Jake Mcelfresh, who plays under the moniker of Front Porch Step, is a person on the verge of something.
