Synopsis

Many Christian parents live in fear of sending their children to a secular university. How will they handle this often-godless environment? They hope that the years spent in the children's and youth ministries of the local church will be enough to sustain their faith. But will it? In this thought-provoking book, Jim Musser, a long-tenured campus pastor, addresses the issues "upstream" that he believes are the source of the problems of weak and immature spiritual foundations in high school graduates that lead 60-80 percent of Christian youth to forsake their faith after graduating from high school, To change this trend, he recommends returning to a basic practice laid out in the New Testament--discipleship. This book will help both those in parenting roles and church leaders to build more effective strategies and approaches to prepare our young people to be effective ambassadors for Jesus Christ on the University campus and throughout their lives.
