Marcus, Ricardo, and Parker all grew up resenting church — forced Sunday services, boring sermons, and rules that felt like chores. In this clip, they each share how they found their way back to faith on their own terms. Marcus talks about his dad's influence, Ricardo shares how hitting rock bottom brought him back, and they discuss why denomination politics miss the point entirely.
