Beyond Campus

This question about grad school, which ties in closely with life direction, actually deals with calling and vocation in its very core.

It is not good for us to be alone. And yet, in the hands of God, loneliness can transform.

It’s Friday night. After a long week, you just want to relax—preferably with a group of friends or even just one. The only problem is that there’s no one to hang out with.

Don’t wait until December to learn how to be a good post-grad friend. Here are three ways you can love your college friends well after graduation.

I can’t tell you how many years I’ve waited to have the conversation.

Help breathe life and fresh gifts into your local church.

I recently bumped into a young woman who had visited our church a little while back. I had been praying for her transition to Austin, and that she might find her way into the life of our church community. I had heard about her, and was delighted that there might be an InterVarsity staff person becoming part of the fellowship.

I have a nostalgic personality. I find comfort in stability and often feel threatened by change. In contrast, my husband dreams about change. Somehow, together, we have learned to trust God in several times of transition, but I would have preferred a manual at the start of the journey.

Happy Giving Tuesday!
