Have you ever been disappointed in the results of campus ministry? Have you struggled to set the right expectations for what campus ministry can be, or what you should hope it will accomplish in the lives of students? This workshop, led by experienced campus ministers, will focus on their understanding of right expectations for gospel-centered campus ministry at strategic colleges and universities. They’ll talk openly and honestly about discouragement and frustration in campus ministry, while also considering the beauty and strategic nature of Word ministry to students in this “short season” of life.
