In this episode, Mary Patton welcomes her childhood friend Russ Upton. Russ is a junior biochemistry major from Jackson, MS and the current chaplain of Sigma Chi at Ole Miss. During their conversation, Mary Patton and Russ discuss the process of sanctification in Russ's life during college, including his time abroad this past summer. Russ provides encouragement to students who struggle with their faith stories by reminding them of Philippians 

which says, "And I am sure of this, that He who began a good work in you will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ." Russ encourages students to remember that God will enable them to be mirrors for Him, whether on their college campuses or in a new place across the world.
