Mike Weller has had a phenomenal career. As associate professor of athletic training, he has instructed, mentored, and coached hundreds of Cedarville students into careers that span high school, college, and professional sports. He is helping lead Cedarville鈥檚 program to new heights with the start of the in June 2022.
Beyond Cedarville, he has served as the staff athletic trainer for the Cincinnati Bengals training camp since 2011. He also has worked for the National Football league as the eyes in the sky during Bengals football games to alert team medical staff about potential concussions.
By all earthly accounts, it would be easy to conclude that Mike is a great athletic trainer. But Mike himself learned, through a Billy Graham crusade, that greatness is not defined by career accomplishments.
Since that moment, showing the kindness and compassion of Jesus has been the driving motivation of his life.
鈥淎 great athletic trainer operates with compassion,鈥 he offers during the podcast. 鈥淭hey see a need but then they look for a way to impact that life, whether it鈥檚 on the football field, on the sidelines, or when someone comes to us with an eating disorder or a young lady who鈥檚 pregnant and she鈥檚 exploring having an abortion. As believers, we have the opportunity to act in that healthcare setting to really impact their lives, and that鈥檚 changed everything I鈥檝e done.鈥
