We took a break this past week from our series on Ruth to listen to a student testimony. Brant Goings shared how our testimonies may not be the way we hoped, but they are still part of who God made us to be and they each paint part of the picture of God's character.
This week at Cru, Kathryn taught us what true confidence in prayer looks like and how closely it's tied to our trust in God. As we continue our series on prayer, take some time to build your confidence in God and see how much it can affect your prayer life.
We're kicking off a 40 Day Prayer Challenge this week with a talk on the purpose of prayer. Join us as we learn the power of prayer and begin to apply it to our lives.
It's Christmas time and our last meeting of the semester. Tune in as Tom Sperlich wraps up our series on Romans 8 by talking about God's love.
This week, Josh talks about our adoption into the family of God and the steps we must take to join this new family.
"It's not about thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less." This week, Josh challenges us to set our minds on God's desires and not our own.
"If you just try hard enough, you can do anything you set your mind to." While our culture thrives on self-sufficiency, scripture tells us we need help living the Christian life. In his final talk, Drew Jackson describes how the Holy Spirit can work inside of you to produce fruit for the kingdom of God.
"Jesus called his disciples first and foremost to be with him." In this talk, Drew Jackson lays out what it looks like to live out of the spirit's power and he invites us to accept that power in our lives today.
"Have you seen Jesus?" Have you been living under the reality that we serve a risen Lord? Listen as Drew Jackson outlines how the disciples reacted to the life changing news of Jesus' resurrection.
"What if the picture of the gospel that is so often painted is not the whole picture?" We tend to wonder if the good news is good enough based on the brokenness we experience. In Drew Jackson's first talk, he responds to these questions by starting at the beginning of God's story.
Tom Sperlich continues our series in Ruth by looking at God's provision for Naomi through Ruth's interactions with Boaz.
Hannah Verseput talks on Ruth 1 and about Ruth's incredible faithfulness to Naomi.
Tom Sperlich introduces our talk series for the fall 2018 semester and starts off with the historical context of Ruth.
Hannah Verseput introduces all of Penn State Cru's staff and talks about the staff's vision for our movement.
Continuing with online Cru, Hannah talks about our endless cycle of emotions through quarantine.
Continuing our online zoom meetings, Tom gives a powerful testimony about our mindset when it comes to prayer.
Continuing with our online zoom meetings, Josh and Kathryn walk us through the disciplines of resting and fasting. Through these practices we can experience a deeper intimacy with God as he reveals to us more about his character.
Student Chandelle Keller talks with us about how our discipline is a response to God's grace and love for us. We act in obedience because of our love for the Father.
Penn State Cru is continually learning and adapting to our new virtual reality. This week Abe talks about how Jesus is our rock. When everything feels unstable and changing Jesus is our stability and strength.
With Penn State classes moving online for the remainder of the semester and campus facilities closed, we're adapting and learning how to continue our movement virtually. In our first virtual meeting, we discuss how COVID-19 has affected us and where God is during this difficult time.
