Reaching MORE College Students: Next Level College Ministry

 I have just released a new book, Reaching MORE College Students:  Next Level College Ministry, through Amazon Books.  It is unapologetically about challenging ministries, and hopefully helping equip ministries, to attempt to reach MORE students.  There are 12,000,000 full time college students in America today.  The best estimate by college ministry leaders is that ALL evangelical college ministries combined (campus and church) are reaching about five (5) percent.  That would be 600,000 students.  In some parts of the country, the 5% figure would be low and in other parts, it would be way high.

A unique aspect of the book is the chapter, "What Can We Learn from Large and Growing Ministries" which lists 5 common characteristics of large Cru ministries, 7 characteristics of large BCM ministries and 11 Characteristics of all types of college ministries from charismatic to very traditional church ministries.  You may or may not be surprised at the commonalities.

Some of the Chapters Included:

Barriers to the Next Level

Your Ministry's Most Valuable Asset and Tool

Your Strategy

Asking the Hard Question

What is the ONE Thing for Reaching More Students?

What Can We Learn From Large and Growing College Ministries?

The "ONE Thing" chapter includes the thoughts of College Ministers who lead from medium to large ministries of what they have seen the one thing to be again and again. You may not be surprised at the common thread that runs through their comments about what they have seen to be true in their ministries.  I hope you might consider, if it might help you as you wind up this semester and look toward the start of the new semester.
