6 Essentials of College Ministry | TheResurgence
September 16, 2009
I have served as a campus minister for five years and have taught at two universities for nine years. In that time, I've learned some lessons about doing campus ministry both the hard way and from great mentors. Here are the top six things you need to know if you're doing college ministry:
I can't think of a more exciting and excitable demographic in America today than college students.
They ask penetrating questions and demand thoughtful answers.
You can't tame them with cliches or subdue them with pat answers.
They hand you a shovel and order you to dig deeper ... and are willing to dig with you.
That's why I like hanging out with them and accomplishing some ministry along the way as well.
