MAKING THE TRANSITION (Part Five)

Congrats on getting to number five on this list of things to do before college. Have you done them all? If not, go back and catch up. We will wait…

 

5. Get Acclimated– Chances are you have already been to your college campus to visit &/or for orientation. You may or may not already know your roommate and have a room picked out. Chances are you have your class schedule, but you may not yet know how to get to your classes. Before you start college, getting acclimated to college would be a good idea. For example, get out a

Start Building Community on Campus NOW

When you step foot on your college campus, everything will be new. You will be experiencing a new environment, new schedule, new friends, new level of academics, new responsibilities, and so much more. For most, it can be overwhelming.

MAKING THE TRANSITION (Part Four)

Now that we are in part four of this five-part series, I think that we have done the harder ones and this tip will be enjoyable and something that you can do for the remaining time you have at home this summer.

Living as an Ambassador in College

Every civilized country sends ambassadors to live in various foreign countries and represent their homeland. In 2 Corinthians 5:20, we are called Christ’s ambassador, “as though God were making his appeal through us.” As an ambassador of Christ, you are being called to live your life worthy of the gospel of Jesus (Philippians 1:27). As hard as it might be at times, you must never forget Who you represent.

 

Throughout your life, you will represent many things. For instance, I represent my family. I also represent my ministry and a leader in my church and community. You represent your school,

Living Your Testimony in College

Sometime in your life, you will be asked to “share your story.” This will most likely happen in connection to your faith and, the older you get, the more of a story you will have to tell. Every adult who is asked to share a testimony will include a report of the college-aged years. 

 

Most of these stories include a childhood/teenage report, a challenge in college, and either continued struggle or recovery as an adult. For example, you might hear someone talk about how they grew up in a Christian home and were involved in the youth group in high
