Summary
Episode 289
Adam Weber is the pastor of Embrace Church in South Dakota. The church was started in 2006 and has since grown to 6 campuses in two states and in 2017 was dubbed the fastest growing church in America.
A huge fan of the Cincinnati Bengals, Adam is also a writer, and released his first book "Talking With God" in 2017. He is also the host of "The Conversation," a podcast that features Adam interviewing other influencers in the Christian world.
On this episode of the podcast, we dive into Adam's obsession with the Cincinnati Bengals, rooting for a team that's never won a Super Bowl, how the idea came about for him to start a church at age 24, why prayer doesn't have to be so difficult, and the burden that he's been wrestling with lately.
