If I do another college ministry book, this will be the title. At this point, I am not planning to write it, so here are some of the likely chapter titles.
1. God called you to love college students in His name not to have a big ministry and be famous! That is all up to God.
2. Every campus is different and no other ministry can be duplicated.
3. For every ministry to grow deep and wide, it takes a long term commitment.
-Every year is another layer.
4. Different times of the school year determine the top priorities.
5. College Ministers can become isolated and wither without intentional actions.
6. Every College Minister's gifts and abilities are different and should help shape the ministry, but not dominate it.
7. Every ministry has a unique strength and it must be nurtured and emphasized.
8. The campus administration can be your friend or your enemy....it is partly up to you.
9. Tweak the ministry every year....don't bomb it.
10. Not giving proper time to your spouse and family will damage you and your family, as well as your ministry.
11. A few things done well will have more lasting impact than a lot of things done poorly or mediocre.
12. You can and should learn something from EVERY other college ministry.
