S2E4 | Our world is changing fast right before our eyes. As parents, we’re left wondering why our sons seem unmotivated and our daughters anxious. Screens, culture, and pressures from all around seem to be shaping our children’s hearts faster than we can.

In this episode of Different by Design, Dr. Leonard Sax—physician, psychologist, and author of Boys Adrift and Girls on the Edge—joins us to unpack what’s really happening with kids today and what a true education really looks like to shape students in the things that truly matter.

*A note that there are a couple of mature themes in this episode but they are brief and clinical in nature.

S1E8 | What kind of student can a Trinity education produce? Where does it take them and what are they doing now? For us, education is more than getting into “that college” or securing “that job” but truly looks at the kind of person they have become—and are becoming. Living lives of purpose, devoted to Christ, always matters more than external outcomes.

In the first installment of our Alumni Series, we sit down with two Trinity alums to hear more about their time at Trinity and learn about the fruits of their education. Welcome to Different by Design.

S1E7 | We’ve often heard it said that anything worth doing is probably going to be hard. And, when it comes to educational pursuits, we know that getting those grades, pursuing those goals, and accomplishing the tasks ahead are not only difficult but often come with unforeseen challenges. We push ourselves, along with our students and children, because we know we’re capable of more and we want to be prepared and useful to all that the Lord has for us. And yet, the Lord uses things like school life and educational processes to shape more than just our minds, but our hearts and affections as well.

On today’s episode, we get to hear first-hand testimonies from Trinity seniors who have pushed through, stayed the course, and have only begun to find the benefit on the other side. Welcome to Different by Design.
