SUMMARY:Inspiring Students to the Adventure of Evangelism at Emmaus University
DESCRIPTION:I’m grateful and excited for the opportunity to speak in chapel at Emmaus University on April 15. College campuses are places where worldviews are shaped\, convictions are tested\, and life trajectories are often set. It’s a privilege to open God’s Word with students during such a formative season of life. My prayer for this time is simple but weighty: that students would be equipped and inspired to embrace a lifestyle of evangelism—not as a temporary activity\, but as a joyful\, lifelong calling flowing from their love for Christ. \nJesus did not call His followers to occasional witness\, but to faithful obedience: “You will be My witnesses” (Acts 1:8). Evangelism is not merely something we do; it is part of who we are as those who have been redeemed by grace. When the gospel truly grips our hearts\, we cannot help but want others to hear the good news of Jesus Christ. \nCollege students stand at a crossroads. Career paths are being considered. Dreams are forming. Plans are taking shape. Scripture reminds us\, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart… and He will make straight your paths” (Proverbs 3:5–6). My hope is to encourage students to think deeply—not only about what they will do for a living\, but about how their lives will be used for eternal purposes. Some students may be called to faithfully witness in the workplace\, the classroom\, or their local communities. Others may sense God stirring their hearts toward full-time ministry\, missions\, or vocational gospel work. Jesus said\, “The harvest is plentiful\, but the laborers are few” (Matthew 9:37). We desperately need men and women who are willing to give their lives to the proclamation of Christ—wherever He sends them. \nPaul’s words to Timothy ring especially true for this generation: “Do the work of an evangelist\, fulfill your ministry” (2 Timothy 4:5). Whether one’s calling leads to the marketplace or the mission field\, every believer is entrusted with the gospel and called to steward it faithfully. This upcoming time at Emmaus University is about lifting up Christ\, grounding students in Scripture\, and reminding them that the gospel is the power of God for salvation (Romans 1:16). It’s about inspiring courage\, faithfulness\, and obedience in a world that desperately needs truth. \nPlease pray with me: \n\n\nThat students would grow in confidence in the gospel \n\n\nThat God would ignite a lasting passion for evangelism \n\n\nThat some would prayerfully consider full-time ministry \n\n\nThat Christ would be exalted and His Word would bear fruit \n\n\nI’m thankful for the opportunity to invest in the next generation of gospel witnesses and laborers. May God use this time to shape lives\, clarify callings\, and advance His kingdom—for His glory alone.
