Meet The Prof, with Shane & Spence

Shane Hartley

Shane Hartley and Spence Hackney receive questions from college students and ask them to Christian professors in a fun, insightful interview format.

Our mission: to encourage Christ-centered conversations on the college campus.

We hope these interviews will help college students, inspire professors, and encourage parents and grandparents of college students.
