Nothing is yet in its true form.
            C. S. Lewis, Till We Have Faces

This short, but loaded statement from Lewis’ reimagining of the Cupid and Psyche myth contains a good measure of hope, but also a fair amount of challenge. We are creatures in process, striving toward Christlikeness, often stumbling along the way. As our students endure the midpoint of the winter quarter (and the school year!), they have a keen sense that their lives are yet not in a true and final form. God has begun a good work in many lives on this campus, and He will carry it to completion through His Son. 

While waiting for judges to deliberate on SpokenWord, 300+ students and others enjoyed a breathtaking musical contribution to an electrifying night of student-led, biblically shaped performances.

Today Christian Union Founder & CEO Matt Bennett released the following statement on Billy Graham’s passing into eternity: "Billy Graham was a spiritual giant whose leadership adorned the doctrines of Christ and brought salvation to thousands and perhaps millions. May God raise up countless others to expand his work as Dr. Graham enters into his reward with the Savior."

“If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” - 1 John 1:8,9

“You can hide nothing from God. The mask you wear before men will do you no good before him. He wants to see you as you are, he wants to be gracious to you. You do not have to go on lying to yourself and your brothers, as if you were without sin; you can dare to be a sinner. Thank God for that; he loves the sinner but he hates sin.”[1] - Bonhoeffer 

The masks we wear, that I wear, are heavy and deceiving. Do you know these masks that I speak of?

A warm welcome to all students at Princeton. (1:39)

"Christian Union wants to see a spiritually vibrant United States of America," says Matt Bennett, the founder and CEO of Christian Union. Since 2002, the ministry has been working toward that end.

The ministry has always been, says Bennett, "about the whole nation — seeing the whole nation transformed, and then from there, America blessing the whole world."

Former Christian Union Ministry Fellow Jon Yeager, speaking at the ministry's leadership lecture series at Harvard, gives a talk called "Stranger Stories at Harvard." He tackles the question, 'What does the Netflix original Stranger Things — a show that has captured the imagination of many students — have to do with the story of God?' His conclusion? Mystery and glory.

*Note: This is one talk, posted in two parts. The total length of the two is 41:00.
