What is God’s Will for Me?

From the desk of Dr. Stan Ward, Director of Campus Life & Ministry:

When students ask 鈥淲hat is God鈥檚 will for me?鈥 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 gives a definite answer:

“Rejoice always,pray without ceasing,give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.”

First Baptist Church of Tyler Pastor*, Pike Wisner, shared this passage of scripture with our MS and US students in chapel this week, explaining that by doing these three things, 鈥渋t鈥檚 difficult to be a jerk.鈥澨齀 appreciate Pike鈥檚 application of the text because it goes well with our Guard Charge. When we 鈥渓ive pure, speak true, right wrong, serve others, and follow the King,鈥 it鈥檚 also 鈥渄ifficult to be a jerk.鈥 We love having guests like Pike proclaim the good news to our students!

*91猫先生 invites local ministers to be part of our chapel program because we want to encourage students who don鈥檛 currently have a church home to connect with local ministries.
