Living Out Your Faith at HU

If you asked me four years ago if I thought going to a Christian university would push me to become stronger in my faith, I would have told you the choice was too safe. I had so many doubts, but this one was the loudest: If I was surrounded by like-minded people and consistent messages of faith, would I be prepared to live in the “real world” when I graduated?

What Can I Do on the Weekends? HU Volleyball Has an Answer.

Saturday mornings for college students typically involve sleeping in, watching Netflix, or going out to brunch with friends. I attended a volleyball match this past Saturday, and I can confidently say I will be returning for more. Huntington University’s volleyball program is high energy, and they invite their fans to join them in the fun.

More Than a Credit: My Spiritual Life Experience

With the busyness of classes, internships, practices, and social lives, the individual importance of each spiritual life experience is sometimes lost. We tend to turn these meaningful times of worship into a 45-minute period of waiting for a QR code. Drawing from my personal experience at a chapel service, I hope that you can see the invaluable impact that spiritual life events can have in your life if you are attentive and have an open heart.
