Podcasts > Wyatt Matters
Sunday, January 4, 2026
In one of the most powerful conversations we’ve ever recorded, Host Steve Wyatt sits down with his mentor, hero, and longtime friend Dr. Leroy Lawson... a man who has served in ministry for more than eight decades, written 32 books, led universities and churches, and shaped countless lives.
This episode goes far beyond biography. Dr. Lawson opens up about leadership, humility, authenticity, the Velcro Family, the art of friendship, why suffering deepens wisdom, and his own heartbreaking journey after losing his son to suicide.
If this conversation resonates with you, Dr. Lawson’s book "Son, We Need to Talk" delves even deeper into the journey of grief, healing, and hope.
