from the university to the city
Poised to Engage Culture
society will be transformed for god ’ s glory as the lives of our future leaders and the educational institutions they attend are impacted by the Gospel of Jesus Christ . As students who are well-positioned to assume roles of influence learn to seek God , grow in their faith , and develop a thoughtful , Christ-centered worldview , they will be prepared to engage culture in a powerful way . This is at the heart of Christian Union ’ s christian union universities update page 16 work at Brown , Columbia , Cornell , Dartmouth , Harvard , Penn , Princeton , and Yale .
as these students graduate , christian union ’ s ministry to its alumni and their peers — Christian Union Cities — will help them take the next step . By developing networks of like-minded believers in key cultural centers , starting in New York City , their impact will be multiplied . This model was used by the Lord to bring sweeping change to England through William Wilberforce and the Clapham Circle in the early 1800s . Pray that God will bring similar change to the U . S . as new networks of leaders emerge and engage today ’ s culture . christian union cities updat e page 29 w i n t e r 2 0 1 7 : : c h r i s t i a n u n i o n . o r g
