This article is the conclusion of a series we have been running in 2024. You can read the full series here.
Impact Campus Ministries believes that if you impact college students, you impact the world. We have a conviction that this impact happens through discipleship. This means we need to establish intentional mentor relationships with our graduates that help them understand how to make a difference in their world—through their vocation, their life experiences, and their relationships.
ICM has been building the foundation for a mentoring network that will enable us to connect adult followers of Jesus with college graduates to help disciple them to the impact God is making through them. Eventually we will be looking for a flood of mentors who are willing to be trained to disciple young people all over the world.
If only we had a huge group of people already connected and bonding over a shared experience… oh wait, we do! Perhaps God was preparing pieces we never could have foreseen the entire time. Perhaps this is part of what we’re called to steward together. Maybe this is how BEMA is bigger than Marty or Brent or the teaching team.
So we’re making sure ICM doesn’t disappear under a growing podcast. We’re making sure healthy campus ministry is promoted and set up to thrive. When you give to our ministry, it’s being used to make sure this vision stays alive and moves forward.
It might be helping the student who is experimenting with their calling in an apprenticeship. It might be helping a campus minister stay healthy and funded while they keep college students engaged. It might be used to reach international students so that we embody the call to remember the foreigner, the fatherless, and the widow.
But when you help BEMA succeed, it looks like empowering college students both on and off campus.
And please stay tuned, because our future needs more than just your money. The world will need our college students, I promise you—and our college students will need you.
