Redeemer Lubbock - College

October 12, 2022 College Gathering

I am the bread of life (John 6:35-51) // Cody Carroll

Axioms: Prayer is a Ministry // Cody Carroll

"We want our students to pray and pray often. We believe that prayer is taking action, just as much as discipleship and reading our Bibles. We pray students would not see prayer as a chore in the Christian life, but a ministry in and of itself."

Axioms: 99% in the light is still in the dark // Brandon Gilbert

"We want our students to desire to live lives of active repentance. We pray that they will be honest in their communities and with us about all their sin -- not just the easy or convenient ones to confess, but that this confession will be an overflow of their deep belief in the overwhelming mercy and grace of the Father."

Axioms: No one sits alone. No one stands alone. // Brandon Gilbert

"We want Redeemer College to be an inclusive family, where anyone who walks in our doors feels wanted, seen, and known. We pray that our students take initiative at every opportunity to sit with someone alone and stand with someone alone, in order to invite them into our family."

College Gathering Fall Kickoff 2022

Axioms: Faithful Over Impressive // Brandon Gilbert

"We want our students to desire to live a life of faithfulness in the small over living a life splattered with a few grandiose moments. We pray that our students would recognize that faithfulness is a consistent mark of Jesus, and thus they would value the small just as much as the big."

College Gathering - 3/29/22 - Justin Smith - The God we worship is incredibly kind, generous, and gracious. But sometimes we take God’s kindness for granted, forgetting that He is God and we are not. Join us as Justin reminds us who God is and why we should live our lives with reverence for Him! // “To approach God in any other way than through Jesus is not only dangerous, but deadly.”

College Gathering - 3/8/22 - Cody Carroll - Life is filled with seasons : some we love living and some we want to fast forward right through. And one of the big questions we ask in the midst of these seasons is about the purpose of it all. Join us as Cody helps us think through the beauty of each season and understand how the book of Ecclesiastes helps us to navigate the purpose of them all . // “God has put something in the DNA of every human that makes us aware that there is something more to this life than what we can see.”

College Gathering - 3/1/22 - Ryan Perkins - Death is a reality that we all have to face … and so is the living we do before it. Join us as Ryan continues our journey through the book of Ecclesiastes and asks the hard questions about choosing real life over simple pleasure, enjoying the good gifts of life, and the joys of truly living in the dash. // “But pleasure always demands more pleasure, and as you keep trying to draw from these wells, you realize the more you run into them the more they take from you.”

College Gathering - 2/22/22 - Brandon Gilbert - What does it look like to have everything you could ever want … and still be unsatisfied? As we enter into the book of Ecclesiastes, we see what this practically looks like in the life of a man who had it all, and still found a desire for there to be more. Join us as Brandon kicks off this book of exploration of the world and purpose, and challenges us to evaluate what we are moving towards. // “Everything else is a treadmill -- evaluate your life, loosen your grip, then see how you respond and embrace the Gospel ... it will cause you to enjoy life and run hard for something that will last.”
