about the blog

This blog originally started to document my summer in Ocean City, NJ on a Summer Project with Cru (formally known as Campus Crusade for Christ).

As I continued to go on missions trips, I really started to understand that living a life for God involves more than being sent overseas. It means choosing to live for him everyday---regardless if you're in school, have a job, or are a full time ministry.

100% sent means that in all circumstances, we are sent to be disciples of Jesus...to tell others about him and God's plan for salvation and the choice we have in redeeming our personal relationship with him. 

Cru's sending model states:

The mission of the Campus Ministry is to “turn lost students into Christ-centered laborers.” At the end of their collegiate career, these Christ-centered laborers will graduate and move into the next chapter of life and ministry. A percentage will join our staff or participate in internships. Most will serve Christ in other capacities. The culmination of our ministry in students’ lives is in sending them into a lifetime of ministry.

The Send Model outlines a process by which a student, who is a Christ-centered laborer, is sent into a lifetime of ministry. It is not a one-time process or a once-for-all decision. The student will reenter the process a number of times throughout his or her life as God leads them into new stages of life and ministry.

"Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28:19-20
