Mike Weaver on Hope in the Hurting
Episode 169
“Blessed are those who mourn, cause they’ll be comforted. Jesus makes that promise, cause He’s the one who’s gonna back up the promise. That doesn’t mean we’re not going to go through a hard time … Jesus can be found right in the middle of it. Closest to those who are the most broken.” - Mike Weaver
On today's episode of The Matthew West Podcast, I get to interview my good friend Mike Weaver of Big Daddy Weave. Mike and I have collaborated for years and have written together on many songs you've probably heard on the radio! Today we talk about living in the "sticks," God's provision even when the purpose isn't clear, and the healing process after losing someone close to you. It was a beautiful and intimate conversation that left no eye dry in the studio.
Let's go to the Story House with Mike Weaver!
