We’re featuring an episode from the Chasing Elephants podcast hosted by our friends at Student Leadership University (SLU), one of our National Outreach partners. For over 25 years, SLU has invested in the lives of over 255,000 students from around the nation. Student Leadership's mission is to develop and equip student leaders to Think, Dream, and Lead. This is done through instilling future-tense thinking, character-driven decision making, ownership of biblical values, and a commitment to influence through service.
