Tonight, the University of Florida Gators will play in the Sugar Bowl against undefeated Cincinnati. As he does in every game, Gators quarterback, Tim Tebow, will have a different Bible verse written on his eye black. I read recently that when Tim wore John 3:16 under his eyes last season, Google recorded 93 million hits that day! So, I decided to check Google Trends for a handful of this season’s games and found that the verses I checked were number one for Google searches on game days. . . and not just number one, but “volcanic,” indicating a high volume. … Continue reading Reaching Millions with Bible Verses… and a Dedicated Life

EXPLO 72

I received Christ shortly after that, on February 19, 1973, and got involved with Campus Crusade for Christ as a student, not knowing Crusade had sponsored EXPLO 72. I finally read the article today, after more than thirty years of being on the staff of Campus Crusade for Christ! Google Books has LIFE magazines. I searched in their LIFE magazine collection for “EXPLO 72” and found the article! Bill Bright … Continue reading EXPLO 72

When in Rome…

mikeandsus

U.S. students can go on a short-term mission project (called a STINT) and often work with Campus Crusade staff to start ministries. We discovered a video from the staff and students who are working to reach students in Rome. After you hear about the religious vacuum in Rome, we know you will want to be praying for their ministry. Maybe you also know a student who would want to learn more about STINT. Continue reading When in Rome…
