Dear CU Nova Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,

It’s summertime in Princeton! Seeing the beauty of the season in full bloom I’m reminded of the Psalmist who wrote “The earth is full of the steadfast love of the Lord” (Psalm 33:5). The whirlwind of the spring 2022 term may be over, yet the work of Christian Union Nova continues.

As the spring term closed, we invited thirty-two students from Christian Union campuses to spend two weeks with us in Northfield, Massachusetts at the inaugural Spiritus Conference. What an incredible experience to worship in the historic home of D.L. Moody. Through morning and evening teaching sessions, Spirit-filled worship, and engaging in community over meals and candid prayer, students experienced the powerful love of Jesus.

Dear CU Martus Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,

Greetings from Penn! Our seniors have officially graduated, while others are off to summer internships, jobs, or study abroad programs. It is tough to send off the seniors, knowing that may be the last time I see them in person for the foreseeable future; however, I rejoice knowing how well they have been equipped in their faith to transform the world around them, and I look forward to seeing the fruit of their lives.

Dear Cornerstone Partners and friends of CU Lux,

Successful people brag. They produce their images of success and unleash their propaganda in ads, campaigns, and Instagram posts. That’s because success stories attract influencers, mobilize resources, generate opportunities, and raise the standard of living. Successful people mostly brag about wisdom, might, and wealth.

Dear Christian Union New York Cornerstone Partners and friends of the ministry,

Thank you for your continued prayers on behalf of Christian Union NY! As we are wrapping up our fiscal year, we are reflecting on the goodness of God to our ministry and our city this past year. As fruit from your faithful prayers, we have seen fast growth in the ministry—from establishing a board of directors, to hiring an executive assistant, to expanding CU Fires more than twofold! To God be all praise and glory! We have truly tasted and seen the goodness of the Lord this past year (Psalm 34: 8).

Professor Brad Wilcox, University of Virginia & Institute for Family Studies

Christian Union New York invited Christian Union Alumni, CU New York participants, and friends of Christian Union to join us on May 31, 2022 at 7:30pm for a virtual forum with Professor Brad Wilcox.


Young Professionals Reflect on CU Gloria, Post-College Life 

By Tom Campisi, Managing Editor

 

On Good Friday, six Harvard College alumni gathered for "Community at the Cross," a panel discussion hosted by Christian Union Gloria.

John Piper Podcast Addresses the Question

The relationship between holiness and answered prayer appears throughout Scripture. John 15:7 says, "If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you." Psalm 66 says, "I cried to him with my mouth, and high praise was on my tongue. If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened. But truly God has listened; he has attended to the voice of my prayer."

Male and Female and the Word of God 

Complementarianism, the idea that men and women are not identical, but rather equal and distinct, is a concept we see written throughout Scripture. And as Andrew Wilson argues in this comprehensive article for The Gospel Coalition, it is also written into creation.

The United States Has Been Marked by Spiritual Ebbs and Flows 

By Dr. Chuck Hetzler

 

The light of the gospel has been fading for many years in the western world. America, along with Canada and many western European nations, are often referred to as “post-Christian.” I’ve caught myself using the term as well, but it’s actually a misleading and harmful catchphrase. Referring to America as a “post-Christian nation” reinforces a false narrative about our country’s Christian history and fosters an ungodly perspective that must be renounced. 

Young Woman Is Thankful for God's Grace, Providence

By Anne Kerhoulas, Staff Writer

 

“You don’t know what it’s like to leave everything behind to follow Christ until you have to do it. Everything can change. Everything can change in a day. That’s why you need a relationship with Jesus. So you can be sure of him when everything else goes away.”
