What happens when you leave the routines, people, and structure you’ve known for most of your life? Austin Gentry talks about what he learned when he went from a Christian school to a state university and found himself navigating new ideas, new experiences, and new responsibilities. Together, Tommy and Austin talk about making your faith your own, working through doubt, choosing your community, finding a church, and remembering that your identity doesn’t have to come from your major, your friend group, or what other people think of you. Most importantly, Austin encourages seniors to make some of those decisions before they get to college, so they aren’t simply reacting to whatever comes their way.
Questions to Consider While Listening:
- How can I start making my faith my own before I get to college?
- How do I find the right people and community when everything is new?
- What decisions should I be thinking through now, before I get to campus?
