BSM is a great place to make friends and grow in your faith at college.
I value the BSM for its ceaseless efforts to reach the campus, its authentic and very loving community, and its desire to make a good God known.
There is an unbelievable amount of opportunity and freedom in college. This is obviously something most students look forward to in the college experience, but it is so easy to get distracted and stray from what you believe in. Becoming involved in BSM or a local church is a testament to being committed to the Lord and putting your priorities in place. Community is essential for a believer to learn and be reminded of personal purpose in this stage of life, and redirect focus on God for direction and hope.
College is one of the most important yet taxing times on a students life, and being sure that you have a strong foundation to fall back on is crucial. Through my local church and BSM I not only found friends, I found community and family. I was discipled, encouraged, and loved. When things get stressful, I have been able to not rely on the small portion that is my strength, but the strength of all those who have found their worth in Jesus and His truth.
