Favorite Verse: 2 Corinthians 5:14-15, “For the love of Christ controls us, because we have concluded this: that one has died for all, therefore all have died; and he died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for him who for their sake died and was raised.”

My Testimony: “I was raised in a Christian home, but I grew up with the misunderstanding that being a Christian is being a morally upright person. When I got to IU, I dove into the social scene, trying to find meaning and purpose in relationships and experiences. It was around this time that I met a Campus Outreach staff member who began to share the gospel with me. Through wrestling with existential questions and studying the bible with that staff member, I came to realize that in knowing Christ I could have more security than I could ever generate by my behavior and more joy than any substance could ever offer. In the fall semester of my freshman year at IU, I put my trust in Christ for the first time and have continued to walk with Him since. On New Year's Day of 2022, I married the love of my life and we share a deep excitement for connecting with IU students!”
