Correcting a Misunderstanding in Collegiate Ministry
So why are so many college students leaving the church when they start college?? Guy Chmielski believes that many of the students are leaving because they are being presented with something that he calls Mutant Christianity. In his blog article Guy references a Princeton Seminary professor who thinks that this Mutant Christianity is a watered down version of the Christ centered faith modeled in the Bible. We should live out this Christ centered faith so that our students are not confused as to what Christianity is. We all know that their faith will be challenged and so they need to have a clear understanding of what they believe and how to actually live it out. Let's make a point of informing them to what the Bible tells us about living a Christ centered life and also give them an example with our life to hopefully change the statistics in favor of staying in the church.
