<p>In <a href="https://www.thechurchnews.com/2011/6/11/23226759/pathway-program-bringing-byu-idaho-to-the-students/">2009, BYU–Idaho launched a program called Pathway</a>. This one-year, reduced-cost online program was offered to students wherever they lived, without stepping on a university campus. Eight years later, in 2017, Pathway changed when the Church announced the creation of <a href="https://www.byupathway.edu/">BYU–Pathway Worldwide</a>. On this episode of the Church News podcast, we learn the stories of faith that have guided the growth and success of BYU–Pathway with its <a href="https://www.byupathway.edu/office-of-the-president">president, Brian K. Ashton</a>, and <a href="https://www.byupathway.edu/office-of-the-president#:~:text=Matt%20Eyring&text=He%20has%20worked%20as%20the,help%20students%20improve%20their%20employment.">Matt Eyring, the school’s vice president of advancement</a>. They join us to share stories they have observed of students’ personal successes, as well as a vision for the program’s future as part of the gathering of Israel and fulfillment of scriptural prophecy about the establishment of Zion.</p>
