EP 5: Mike Weaver: Walking with the Creator | The Gather Podcast

Mike Weaver is known for honest songs that tell personal stories of freedom in Christ, Big Daddy Weave has long been admired for their real-life, real-person openness. With songs like Redeemed, God Is In This Story, Heaven Changes Everything, My Story, The Lion and the Lamb, Overwhelmed, and Let It Begin, Big Daddy Weave has become one of the most beloved bands in Christian music. Millions have taken their anthems of the chain-breaking love of Jesus as their own and sung along to songs about the radical act of redemption. The band’s openness to go through whatever doors God opens for them has kept them going since their early days as students at the University of Mobile. Big Daddy Weave’s testimony is about a deep and personal faith in Jesus, no matter the circumstances. A mainstay at radio, the band has achieved multiple No. 1 singles. RIAA Platinum-certified "Redeemed" became an anthem of unprecedented impact when it spent 11 weeks at No. 1, was dubbed “Song of the Year” at the first annual K-LOVE Fan Awards, and earned Dove Award and Billboard Music Award nominations. Their follow-up hit, “The Lion and The Lamb,” has become one of the genre’s most-streamed songs. They have amassed more than one billion career streams and have received numerous honors, including a Dove Award, ASCAP and BMI Awards, and the prestigious Rich Mullins Artist Impact Award, among others.

Yes! To more fellowship podcasts! What a beautiful hour I just spent listening. I did a pause and watched Every Tribe again. I’m by the fireplace and got chills. The good chills. And, yes, Joshua in that music video when you and the young boy see each other and they show your face close up, you have the kindest eyes. And the boy looks back at you and has them too. And then the Father /son hug. I cry big tears every time. As a Mama and Nana, seeing that love just melts my heart.
And Chief Riverwind! Love him! He’s posted since 10/7 his love for Israel. Native Americans standing with Israel with signs saying so. Powerful podcast. I know you are humble men who do not seek recognition, fame or riches. Just want you to know your music uplifts many heart, keeps us close to Jesus, and is so inspiring. I share it far and wide! Like a net, fishing for lost souls through ya’alls joyous music of the hope and love of our Creator and His Son, our Lord and Savior, Jesus. God Bless you and God Bless Israel. Yeshua Forever. 🇮🇱

So glad you had Mike Weaver last year and this yr, and that you all are friends! I've seen you both a few times👐🏼. I'm blessed I saw Big Daddy Weave about 5 yrs ago, I won tickets plus bought some to take friends; what a blessed worship time! 👐🏼 So a few months ago I made a point of taking several friends to see them again. Their songs are so wonderful, too. 👐🏼
