The Soul Purpose

from Beyond the Syllabus: Pedagogy and Purpose · host Tiffanie Turner-Henderson

What happens when your daily work aligns with a calling? In this episode, we sit down with University Chaplain Dr. Benjamin Sammons to explore the bigger picture beyond the classroom. While higher education often focuses on GPAs and graduation regalia, Dr. Sammons challenges us to look deeper at the "purpose" that guides us when the ceremonies end. Join us for a calming and reflective conversation about finding your cardinal direction in a shifting world and how we can help the next generation discover who they are truly meant to be.Special thanks to my colleague and Anesu Simango for editing this espisode. Explore episode extras and more at Behind the Mic: www.gobeyondthesyllabus.com.
