Friend in Challenge
Friendship is important to any human. At Challenge, we see healthy friendships as a critical part of your college experience.
But even though they are critical they are hard at take work. Our greatest friendship is to be a friend of Jesus, but that should pour out to others as well. We should also be willing to extend friendship at all times. We should not be content with just "our group" of friends because the gospel continually invites people in.
Here are a couple resources that will help you love others and make christ-centered friendships.
