In Pursuit with Mike Weaver

Mike meets Operation Restored Warrior founder Paul Lavelle in Colorado Springs, CO. Paul was a tough and committed atheist throughout much of his life and career in the military. An encounter with Jesus committed Paul's life to work with veterans and others to find Jesus and have their lives restored.

Mike travels to Greenville, SC to talk with sculptor Mark Patrick. Mark's hard and challenging experience was changed when Jesus came into his life and not only transformed his spiritual life, but his physical life by giving him the gift of sculpting.

Christian music artist Anne Wilson (My Jesus) joins Mike to talk about seeking the prescence of God. After tragically losing her older brother, Anne's pursuit of the presence of God manifested itself in ways she never imagined.

For this Season finale, Mike’s podcast travels bring him full circle to the site of episode one in North Carolina to meet with Scott Volk and Mike’s college roommate, friend and pastor at The Refuge, Nathan Smith. Together, the three talk about God’s heart for Israel. Scott is a Messianic Jew who, after more than 20 years in pastoral ministry, founded Together For Israel, a non-profit ministry that exists to partner with the church for the salvation of Israel (Rom 11:26) and see Jew and Gentile united as "one new man" in the Messiah.
