"Win the Campus today, win the world tommorrow!" Dr. Bill Bright, founder of Campus Crusade for Christ
The college campus is an extremely powerful place to do ministry. College students make up only about 1% of the world population, but they will be our future world leaders. The decisions that they make and what they learn during college will influence the direction they lead our society. If they can be reached with the message of Jesus Christ and have the opportunity to accpet him then that decision could have global implications on the future spiritual atmosphere of our country.
In light of this reality, we have a three fold mission strategy based out of 2 Timothy 2:2, that we implement called Win, Build, Send. Win: We win students to Christ by introducing them to Jesus throu initiating spiritual conversations, doing outreaches to intentionally offer students the chance to hear the gospel, and through utilizing the media to expose them to Christ and the Bible. Build: The Bible calls us to make Disciples, not just converts. We emphasize that we want to see life change in students, not a one time emotional experience. We help students grow in their relationship with God, by getting them involved in a Bible study, offering them mentoring relationships from Spiritually mature individuals, and giving them biblical life application, as well as teaching them how to share their faith with others. Send: Finally, we teach them how to have a ministry of their own, so that wherever the Lord takes them after college they can make an impact on the world by sharing Christ with those people who are within their realm of influence. Crusade is about seeing spiritual multiplication, we teach students about Christ through Win, build, ans Send, and then send them out to do the same to others.
Not everyone is able to share the gospel with college students full time. But, God has called us all to reach the world with his message. By investing in our ministry with Campus Crusade, you are taking an active role in helping to fulfill the great Commission by helping us to reach the college students of the world for Christ.
