Community and Relationships

“The Lord met me face to face and showed me the revival starting in our generation,” said Nina, a student in the Greek InterVarsity chapter at San Diego State University.

InterVarsity chapters develop student leaders who become world-changing alumni. Many of our ministries on campus wouldn’t be possible without these alumni generously giving their resources and time to continue serving students as volunteer staff — like Dez and Jay-La.

Most people worry that college is where students lose their faith. Sadly, many do. But, we’ve also found that college is an ideal place to help students grow their faith and introduce them to Jesus.

Through my interactions with new believers, I rediscovered a part of my faith I had lost.

Saying goodbye to leaders can be hard. Some of us will feel confused about what happens next while others may feel fearful of the shoes we’re stepping into. Thankfully, we aren’t the first to experience such transitions.

I was operating unconsciously as if everybody shared my Christian knowledge and views. It was my wake-up call. I needed to invest in friendships with non-Christians again, and that would require intentional effort.

Fall Conference was where God prepared me for years of serving my campus. I knew that he was going to do the same for the eager students who showed up in 2023.

I am forever grateful for the things I learned and the ways the Lord changed my heart when I was an RA. 

God has uniquely positioned Filipino Americans on our campuses as both seed recipients and seed scatterers of revival.

When Esther arrived at Harrisburg, her faith wasn’t her main focus. She thought that she could follow Jesus on her own and wasn’t seeking Christian community –– until a friend invited her to an InterVarsity Bible study.
