The Faith of a Freshman

I friend of mine suggested a start a blog series about how to handle freshman year. I'm going to be completely honest, the first thing I did was laugh.

"ME..." I thought, "Share my experience? What good could that possibly do? I don't have any answers."

But then I started thinking about it. It's definitely true, I don't have all the answers. But what would happen if more Christian college students started sharing what was going on in their lives. Their struggles, experiences, and what few answers they may have? Maybe then the Christian college student wouldn't feel so ALONE. Maybe then we would start to hear people talk about Jesus on our college campuses. Maybe we would start to see God do something amazing with broken and answer-less people like me to reach young adults for Christ.

I am starting the Faith of a Freshman series on a "what if".

What if we, Christian young people, could show our campuses what the love of Jesus Christ really looks like? What if we started to speak up and stand out? What would happen then?

I know this is not easy, to be precise, I have experienced that fact that this is not easy. I know I cannot give you all the answers so I will not attempt to. But what I will do is take on the responsibility of sharing. I will share what I learn, what God is teaching me, and what I see Him do, and hopefully you will do the same. Because I know what it's like to feel like the only Christian on your campus. I know what it's like to feel completely alone in your pursuit of truth. But it's not true. You are not alone. There are more of us out there then you think.

We just aren't being loud enough.
