Ep.#101: From Auburn Roots To A National Network, The Oaks Collaborative
Description
We explore how the Oaks Retreat helps freshmen and transfer students find faith, friends, and a church home before classes begin, and how that Auburn-born idea scaled into the Oaks Collaborative across campuses nationwide. Trace shares the heart, the hurdles, and the leadership pipeline that turns a weekend into a year of mentorship.
