In this episode, we have a conversation with Aaron Smith, former Elon University basketball player, as he shares his testimony and the journey that shaped his life both on and off the court. Aaron opens up about his time as a collegiate athlete at Elon, the lessons he learned through the highs and lows of competitive basketball, and how his faith anchored him every step of the way.

Drawing from his experience as a former Admissions Counselor, Aaron also reflects on his path in Higher Education and offers thoughtful insights and practical advice for students navigating their academic, athletic, and spiritual journeys.

Whether you're a student, athlete, or someone passionate about education and faith, Aaron’s story will challenge and encourage you to pursue purpose over pressure and influence over accolades. Let's Go!
