Remodeling and Renaming

Welcome back to blogger world for me! It's been a long 7 months without a post, but I've been starting my first year at college and adjusting to all the blessings and challenges that accompany it. I've done some remodeling to the blog, giving it a new name and such to fit its new purpose.

Let me explain what I'll be writing about for the next few months, or even the new few years. Since I've began at Cornerstone University, in Grand Rapids, MI, I've noticed an incomplete picture of the body of Christ among the students at the Christian universities in the Grand Rapids, West Michigan area. Sure, we compete against each other in athletic events, but outside of that I see no efforts from the schools to unite us together as one body of Christ. I want to change that. I want students from Calvin, Kuyper, Aquinas, Hope, Cornerstone, and others to come together as one body of believers to make God's name great. I want to see us grow in relationship to Christ together, serve together, sacrifice together, and give glory to God together.

As of right now, I have no idea what that may look like and where God is leading, but I am trusting that he will do something radical among the Christian universities in this area. I ask that you would be in prayer for this, that people's names and faces would not be the forefront of this movement, but rather the name of God. Also, that hearts and lives would be changed forever.

If you are a student in the Grand Rapids, West Michigan area, I strongly urge you to commit this to prayer and ask God what part he may have for you in this. God has great things planned for this generation.

"They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. Selling their possessions and goods, they gave to anyone as he had need. Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved." Acts 2:42-47
