BSM is a great place to make friends and grow in your faith at college.
I believe that my involvement with the local church and the BSM has been the most important things I have done in my time in college. I have grown so much closer to God through the Godly community I have developed that has continually challenged me in my walk with Christ and encouraged me as well. I have made many friends that I get to just hang out with and have good times but also have life giving conversations ... I believe that without these wonderful God-fearing people in my life I would have had a much harder time in college and not have grown as much in my faith.
We are made to be a community of believes that walk and struggle together, all for the glory of God. For me, church and BSM have given me access to discipleship resources and fellowship I never would have had otherwise.
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.
