Roadmap To Heaven with Adam Wright

January 10, 2024 (Transforming Culture in America with Stephen Minnis)

     Today's episode features a conversation with Stephen D. Minnis, President of Benedictine College in Atchison, Kansas.
     Have you heard this sobering statistic? 80% of college students go into college with an active faith life, but only 18% are still active in that faith life upon graduation. At Benedictine, they've turned that statistic around with 90% of graduating seniors saying their faith life has increased, not decreased.
     President Minnis shares insights on how intentionally living out our Catholicism, not just in education, but in every aspect of life can transform our campuses and culture.
