About This Podcast

Grove City College strives to be the best Christian liberal arts college in America. We provide a learning experience unlike any other. But not everything you learn comes out of a textbook. At Grove City, faith informs education every bit as much as our esteemed faculty. This one-of-a-kind experience means that while students are preparing for a career, they are also discovering their purpose. This podcast features the alumni and faculty thought leaders of the highest proficiency, purpose, and principles sharing their personal and professional experiences and expertise. In their own words, these are their stories.
