Christ & Campus

How do your prayers to God begin? 

Perhaps we need to learn to humble ourselves and to empty ourselves before God- confessing our uselessness without Him, praising his greatness, power and might, begging for His agenda to be worked out in us. James 4:6 (ESV) reminds us that "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." Pride leads us to march into the throne room of the Creator God and King demanding our agenda be realized. Humble dependence leads us to crawl before the King on our faces begging for the King to work and act according to His will and pleasure. 

Are you approaching God in pride or in humility? 

The dependent disciple moves into the presence of God with humble dependence.

Today's podcast takes a look at the humble dependence upon God and His missional agenda that we all need as we pursue the mission of God. We continue this series of exploring the model prayer that Jesus uses to guide His followers in their praying.

Join us as we better understand what it means for the Christian to depend upon God as they take the good news of Jesus into a hurting world.

Many times when we are confronted with the mission of God for His disciples we begin with a self-centered approach to pursuing that mission. We immediately begin to look for what WE can do and what actions WE need to take. We often miss a crucial focus in pursuing the mission of God- the mission is ALL ABOUT GOD!

Today's podcast takes a look at the foundational dependence upon God that we all need as we pursue the mission of God. We begin this series by taking a look at the model prayer that Jesus uses to guide His followers in their praying.

Join us as we better understand what it means for the Christian to depend upon God as they take the good news of Jesus into a hurting world.

BCM believes that each Christian college student should be connected to a local church while in college. This relationship with a local Church is an important part of growing in spiritual maturity as a disciple. BCM wants to see each and every student connected in a growing and vibrant relationship with a local church.

This podcast will help you to hear from many of our local churches, to discover ways to connect to local churches and to find a Church that you can visit soon!

Collegians need to pay attention to three very important things in their church relationships to move them from just attending to connecting:

1. Make real, tangible Commitments to a Biblical Church

2. Serve in the Local Church

3. Open Yourself to Accountability in the Local Church
