🎙️ Be The Difference – Season 2, Episode 3

Term 3 Highlights, Global Journeys & A Legacy of Faith

✨ Episode Summary In this Term 3 edition of Be The Difference, we cover the stories, voices, and moments that shaped the Redlands College community this past season. From the joy of Seussical to the heartfelt reflections on our reunion day, from international ministry and service trips to the much-anticipated Matt Stanley Rugby Match, this episode captures both the laughter and the laments of our shared journey.

We hear from Christine Palacios, the Pepperdine student and Next Generation Preacher Search winner who spent ten days on our campus, from students in the cast of Seussical, and from those who travelled to the USA and Vanuatu. We pause to honour the life of James Newton, a much-loved colleague, alumnus, and friend whose smile and faith left a lasting impact.

Along the way, Curious Minds takes us sailing through the Greek Islands, alumni share stories from reunions, and students reflect on discovering their God-given potential.
