The Maverick Podcast explores the unexpected journeys of spiritual seekers as they buck cultural norms and religious expectations to follow Jesus. Our first season follows the story of Bishara, a young Muslim man from Central Africa who had everything going for him until a chance encounter dramatically changed the course of his life. From strange dreams and guns that misfire to imprisonments and miraculous healings, Bishara's story may sound too wild to be true. To get to the bottom of it all, we talk to those close to him—and experts around the world—to find out what would make a man like Bishara risk it all in pursuit of truth.
