The Life of RL
Faith, Fatherhood & Finding Your Way Back
Two versions of the same man
Everybody knew DJ RL — the blends, the booth, the room reading him note for note. What they didn’t see was the other man behind the brand: the father, the believer, the one quietly coming apart while the world applauded.
The Life of RL is the honest account of double-mindedness — being pulled between who you perform for the crowd and who God is asking you to become. It’s about the cost of trying to serve both, the moment the floor gave out, and the slow, unglamorous work of finding the way back.
It’s written for the man who looks fine on the outside and knows he isn’t — and for anyone who has had to rebuild their faith, their family, and themselves from the studs up.
Three threads, one road home
Faith
A grounded, KJV-rooted wrestle with God — not a highlight reel, but what belief looks like when you’re unstable in all your ways.
Fatherhood
Raising sons as a full-time single father while trying to become the man he’s telling them to be.
The Way Back
How a life gets rebuilt — the decisions, the losses, and the faith that carried him through.
A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.James 1:8 · KJV
