After speaking with eight InterVarsity campus ministers representing seven states, I found that no region in the U.S. has a "greater" or "lesser" need for witnessing communities.

Before the fun and powerful Friday afternoons my chapter experiences now at Indiana State University (ISU), God had to move in some unexpected ways.

“I was an engineer at work and a Christian at home,” Brett, an InterVarsity alumnus, said.

For many years, I thought prayer was just a one-way conversation. I asked God for what I or others around me needed but never stopped to listen. I didn’t expect God to talk back to me.

Jesus modeled for us how to be connected to the needs of a broken world while remaining without sin.

Through InterVarsity, Maryanne gained beautiful friendships, leadership experiences, and she learned to love her campus well. This, combined with her passion for mental health, inspired her to pursue a master's in clinical mental health counseling. Later, she joined Maverick City Music, a Christian worship music collective, as a vocalist. 

At the climax of God’s creative endeavors is the declaration that creation is good, and this creation is beautiful. Therefore, we must consider the idea that in God’s eyes, beauty is good.

When our faith is reduced to religious acts alone, it falls short of God’s design. 

Beatrice’s faith continued to grow and so did her heart for others. She walked around campus praying and being aware of the people she passed. Particularly, she noticed this one student.
