How a Life Can Be Built Through Many Pieces
By Clark Kent
Anthony Weber has been teaching at LEAD for a number of years. He got his start in Michigan, and through certain circumstances ended up speaking about worldview in the Minnesota LEAD. This year is Mr. Weber’s second year speaking in Minnesota and he plans to continue in the future. He enjoys forming relationships with the students and getting to know as many students as possible.
Mr. Weber enjoys reading books and recommends the book, “The Reason for God” by Timothy Keller. It covers many questions that a young Christian may have about God, including why God allows sin, why Christianity is right, and many more. This book and more by Keller can be found at timothykeller.com/books.
Mr. Weber had heard Ravi Zacharias speak and became interested in worldview. He started teaching English at Traverse City Christian School and eventually switched to the Bible department. He was sent to Summit Ministries to teach a curriculum called Understanding the Times. This led to his involvement in youth ministries and eventually his becoming a pastor. His time at Traverse City Christian School came to an end due to heart complications. Mr. Weber now teaches an ethics class at a university and is still a pastor.
When asked about which state Mr. Weber preferred, he gave a chuckle, but then went into depth about the benefits of each. According to him, both programs have their advantages. When he is in Minnesota, he is here longer and has more opportunities to meet people. However, when Mr. Weber is in Michigan, he comes in later, which makes the environment more relaxed.
Weber has an interesting relation with LEGOs. He has built the lives of many LEGOs and at the same time they have built his life. According to Mr. Weber, he has had two cameos in both of the LEGO Movies with a character similar to Batman.
