College used to be a forge for wisdom and virtue. Now it’s a factory of debt and disillusionment. For millions, the “dream” of higher education has turned into a nightmare—high tuition, empty promises, and minds poisoned by ideology.

The old formula — go to college, get a job, live the dream — doesn’t work anymore. The system is broken. Modern academia no longer forms thinkers or builders; it manufactures cynics and conformists.

But there’s a better way. In this episode, Lennox Kalifungwa sits down with John Lewis, a 2004 graduate of New Saint Andrews College, former Goldman Sachs professional, and now Founder & CEO of Beam Reach, a thriving real estate investment firm.

Lewis embodies what true education should do: train leaders who think clearly, build boldly, and shape culture for generations to come. He shares how NSA’s classical, Christ-centered education gave him the tools to solve complex problems and build successful institutions.

This is the conversation every student, parent, and educator needs to hear.
