Worldview Devotional
Worldview Devotional

Years ago, my son got a book called 1001 Pirate Things to Spot. It is so much fun sitting with Levi and looking for the pirates. The longer you look at the picture, the easier it is to see them. In time, you know where to look and where not to look. Your eyes are focused to look for pirates. The same is true of truth, especially biblical truth in the world. The longer you look at the real Father, Son and Holy Spirit of Scripture, not a counterfeit look-a-like, the easier it is to see Him in the world. When your view of God is clear, you find your eyesight to be clearer for finding Him in the attitudes and actions of people.

Feeling Depressed?
Feeling Depressed?

Living the Christian life is full of ups and downs. As you probably have experienced, just because you are at a Christian college or are contemplating the possibility of attending a Christian school does not make you “depression proof.” You are or will experience real stress from every direction.

Morph Devotional
Morph Devotional

Do you remember those action figures from the early 90s called The Power Rangers? I might be dating myself, but those were amazing toys. Which was your favorite color? They would change from human form to superhero with their “Morph’in Power”! This is what is about to take place with Jesus in Mark 9:2-13.

Thinking Wise
Thinking Wise

Getting your brain around the brain is difficult. Do you want to know something mind-blowing? Did you know that the cerebral cortex of the human brain contains roughly 15–33 billion neurons (depending on gender and age) linked with up to 10,000 synaptic connections each? Each cubic millimeter of cerebral cortex contains roughly one billion synapses (a lot of stars!). These neurons communicate with one another by means of long protoplasmic fibers called axons, which carry trains of signal pulses called action potentials to distant parts of the brain or body and target them to specific recipient cells.

Checklist for Growth
Checklist for Growth

Sometimes it is hard to measure whether we are growing in our relationships with God. If you are like me, sometimes I think I am taking a few steps back; and other hours, days, weeks, months or years, I think I am running forward. I understand, but it is still important to set some goals for growth in your faith maturing.

Own Your Faith
Own Your Faith

How do we know if we are following close to the real Jesus? Even those on a Christian college campus must wrestle with owning their own faith. There are many proofs that show up in the lives of those who love Him. Look to your heart and then to your actions. Certainly it is not always easy to spot the real thing in others, but you know yourself. Here are a few pointers to consider from Jesus.

Conflict in College
Conflict in College

True or False: When you head off to college (even a Christian college), you never will experience conflict with people? Yes, that would be a strong False. As long as we live in this sinful fallen world, we will experience conflict and disagreements with classmates, professors, bosses, parents, siblings and others. Sometimes, it seems to happen with those closest to us. As friendships grow, in a strange way, conflict helps deepen relationships. Sometimes conflict tests a relationship to see how deep the roots go.

Read Your Bible
Read Your Bible

Do you read your Bible? This might seem like a strange question for someone looking to go to a Christian college, but so many who have left their parents' house also have left their faith in Jesus. They have forgotten where their primary guidance should come from or been distracted. They have stopped reading the Bible on a regular basis.

Be a Mentor
Be a Mentor

In the last article, I challenged you to find a mentor. Let me turn the coin over. Many Christian college students focus all of their time and energy into studying and fulfilling all of their academic requirements without stopping to serve in ministry. Hard to believe? Yes, do your God-given best in the classroom, but do not miss the opportunities to serve at the same time. There are all sorts of places for your to serve including campus ministries and a local church, but Jesus gave us a mandate in Matthew 28:18-20. Many call this the Great Commission, but it is a call to go and make disciples. It is God's purpose for you to invest your life into another…even while you are in college (2 Tim. 2:22). Do not wait until after you graduate to pour your life into another. Go for it today.
