Carson Weitnauer

Carson serves as the Executive Director of Uncommon Pursuit.

After graduting from Rhodes College (Memphis, TN), he served for ten years in campus ministry. He had the joy of investing in the spiritual growth of students at Emory University, Rhodes College, LeMoyne-Owen College, Harvard University, and Boston College Law School.

Over the next seven years, Carson worked at RZIM. During this time he started and built an online community called RZIM Connect. In 2020, over 375,000 people visited RZIM Connect and viewed 1.8 million pages. He resigned from the ministry in January 2021 to advocate for survivors and to protest the ministry’s toxic defense of Ravi.

In the fall of 2021, momentum developed to start what became Uncommon Pursuit. Carson is enrolled in the D.Min program at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. He serves as an elder at Fellowship Bible Church and as Chair of the Board for Creating Jobs. He co-edited the anthology True Reason and co-authored StartBook. His family lives in the Atlanta area.

In his free time, Carson enjoys photography, chess, and entertaining his children with dad jokes.
