“I want to make sure I’m using my time and energy, both verbally and nonverbally, to impact people for eternal purposes. I want to use my career in baseball to impact a generation with the Gospel message,” Weaver said.
The professional baseball player loves getting the opportunity to talk to teammates about God, saying, “Often, I want to be able to do more than just have a conversation—to really help them understand who God is—but I’m excited when I get to have these chats, answer any questions they may have about my faith and talk with them about why they believe this or that. We talk, not only so that they can gain my perspective—God’s perspective—but so that I can better understand them and where they come from. When we’re able to sit down with four ears and four eyes, getting to know each other better, we are able to find common ground.”
