In this episode of Meet the Difference Makers, Ryan talks with Mark Manry, Vice Provost at Rochester Christian University. Mark shares his journey of giving 14 years to a small faith-based institution and why it matters more than ever.

Through farming analogies and honest conversation about today's challenges, Mark opens up about the soul-craft of helping students discover who they are. He talks about why some things, like oak trees and transformed lives, take time to show their true impact.

Takeaways: 

  • Like growing oak trees, transforming lives takes time - you might not see results for years
  • Your institution's story needs to be clear and authentic to attract the right students
  • Working with students isn't about creating copies of yourself, but helping them discover who they are
  • Building genuine community and staying true to your calling matters more than chasing trends
