Dr. Richard Goode: “Pursuing the Life of the Mind”
Sometimes education becomes a bridge to the seeming impossible. When a student suggested Richard Goode visit Death Row, it planted a seed that grew into the LIFE program (Lipscomb Initiative for Education) at the women's prison in Nashville. Remarkably, Richard's own story began with higher education a distant dream. In this episode, discover how education can transform lives and what it looks like to bring hope to unexpected places.
Richard is the author of several books on church history and reconciliation, including his latest, co-authored with Dr. Caleb Clanton, titled Great Ideas in History, Politics and Philosophy.
