Welcome to The Bulldog Mindset Podcast (episode 7), where we explore the minds, passions, and expertise of those shaping the Gardner-Webb University experience. Hosted by Dr. Greg Pillar, this series highlights the faculty, students, and leaders who bring innovation, energy, and impact to education every day.

In this episode, Dr. Steven Harmon, professor of Historical Theology in the School of Divinity, joins us to share his remarkable journey through scholarship, ministry, and ecumenical dialogue. From presenting his work to the late Pope Francis and covering the Conclave and the naming of Pope Leo to exploring the theological imagination of U2, Harmon offers a fascinating glimpse into a life where music, faith, and academic excellence intersect.

We dive into how church history informs leadership today, why ecumenism matters more than ever, and what students can learn from connecting theology to real-world practice. Plus, don't miss the lightning round where we find out if Bach or Bono wins in a face-off!

Tune in now to discover how curiosity, unity, and a little rock 'n' roll help define the Bulldog Mindset at Gardner-Webb. Learn more about GWU’s podcast series at gardner-webb.edu/podcast.
