At Powerline and Diamond Hill: Unexpected Intersections of Life and Work
How does a Mennonite farm girl, whose “closed” Oregon community prescribed a limited role for women and distrusted education, end up a university president? Journey with Lee Snyder as she explores the surprising and unexpected paths that opened her doors to education and leadership.

“Offering truth-filled candor and grace-filled insight, Snyder has written an engaging memoir that will speak to any individual’s personal exploration and embrace of the vocational journey.” —Kim Phipps, President, Messiah College

“This luminous book . . . makes for fascinating and instructive reading.” —Jeff Gundy, in the Foreword

“As profoundly spiritual as Thomas Merton and Kathleen Norris, as wise about leadership as Margaret Wheatley and Max DePree, Snyder has created an alabaster-box memoir out of which she pours a lifetime of reading, revery, and relationship.” —Shirley H. Showalter, Vice-President­Programs, Fetzer Institute
