Full Focus | Keeping it Real with Michael Cochrane

To be known widely, but not deeply is a dangerous thing. And yet, authentic relationships that keep you accountable are not easy to come by. You probably know Michael Cochren as the lead singer of Cochren & Co., but behind the music is someone who cares deeply about staying grounded and keeping it real with his community and with God. In this Full Focus episode, Michael shares why he’s chosen to stay rooted in his small town, what accountability looks like for him, and how God’s goodness isn’t defined by circumstances. Michael, Rick, and McKenna discuss what it looks like to work through church hurt and fight for accountability. If you’ve ever felt alone in your hurt or struggled with how to build relationships where you’re truly known, this conversation is for you. Full Focus episodes are longer episodes of The Morning Focus, where Rick and McKenna dive deeper into the truths we highlight in our daily devotionals.
