Greetings from Palo Alto!
Fall quarter is underway at Stanford, as are our Bible courses! In our study of Philippians, we recently meditated on God’s all-encompassing and lovingly wise command for our thoughts and actions:
Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. What you have learned and received and heard and seen in me—practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you (Philippians 4:8-9).May God grant us and you the strength to so think and so act, and in doing so may the God of peace be with us in profound ways!
Toward that end, please pray with us:
- That many new freshmen and sophomores will join Christian Union Bible courses and set their minds on what is true, honorable, just, pure, lovely, and commendable this quarter.
- That new students in Bible courses would become best friends with each other, helping each other pursue Christ during their time at Stanford and beyond.
- That God will manifest himself to us whenever we gather together this quarter.
- That Christian Union students will bring the good news of Jesus to their classmates in kind, compelling, and creative ways, and that many will trust in Christ!
We are so grateful for your partnership in prayer.
Warmly,
Justin Woyak
