Book Of The Month

Sheppard, T 2009,
God on Campus: Sacred Causes & Global Effects,
IVP, Downers Grove, IL.

‘Maybe, like me, you’ve heard stories about the time when the soul of our great universities intentionally engaged with God. When Harvard was considered a holy place and Princeton trained prophets.’

So begins Trent Sheppard’s very readable, yet challenging,history of God at work on some of the great campuses of the world.

Maybe, like me, you think that sounds remarkably like the soul of CHC today.

Read God on Campus. It will encourage you with its stories of God’s greatness in the small places; it will challenge you to continue that close engagement with God; and, never the dry historian, Sheppard will entertain with his quirky cameos of campus life.
