Brian Mullins' new single, "Religion, Money, and Her," is a letter from a young father who had to grow up too fast. The song is about his first divorce in 1994 and is full of real-life experiences shaped by faith tested, money lost, and love lost.
At 19, Mullins had to deal with heartbreak, custody battles, and the stress of raising two kids on his own. As a Christian who never thought divorce was right, this experience shook his sense of stability and broke up his faith, money, and marriage. But the song doesn't stay bitter. Instead, it focuses on reflection, resilience, and the quiet strength of faith that helped him heal and move on.
The song starts as a slow-burning country ballad that emphasizes storytelling over spectacle. Mullins' style is very personal and honest, which is exactly what modern country fans want. His upbringing in Meadow Bridge, West Virginia, and Winder, Georgia, shows in the grounded, small-town honesty that runs through his songs. Mullins' story is getting a lot of attention, as shown by a live interview on The Tim Kelley Show in Branson, Missouri, and a rapidly growing fan base.
"Religion, Money, and Her" is a story about faith under fire and love rebuilt from ashes. It is a timeless country story told with humility, heart, and hard-earned wisdom.
