Reaching Others for Christ at College and University

University is a great place to find faith in Christ (I know, I found Christ at University, as did many of my friends), but it is easy to make mistakes whilst trying to reach out to your fellow students. For that reason I have been eagerly awaiting the publication of a new book that seeks to help "freshers" adjust successfully to university life and witness. Krish Kandiah, recently appointed Executive Director: Churches in Mission at the Evangelical Alliance, is the author of FRESH: Bite-sized Inspiration for New Students (ISBN 13: 978-1844742752). According to Amazon.co.uk:

FRESH provides daily inspirations for new students covering everything from writing essays to writing home, from making friends to making the grade, from debt to dating. FRESH offers a challenging introduction to maintaining a strong personal Christian faith but keeps its main emphasis on discovering how Christian students can make the most of their faith, relationships and studies.

Krish has also launched a website to complement the book called Freshspace, which provides further resources on issues including Faith, Relationships, Evangelism, Study and Holiness. If you, or someone you know, are planning to start College or University this year both the book and the website would prove of great help.
