Summer Special – Why Join Christian Union?

Faith On Campus Podcast Episode by Ben Smart, Why Join Christian Union

Why join Christian Union? In the next few weeks, thousands of uni students all around Australia will be heading back to university as semester gets under way. In this episode we ask the question: why get connected to the Christian group on your campus?

This episode is a recording of a talk I gave last week at Kickstart, a 3-day orientation camp for incoming first year university students. We had about 150 students with us, and it was a great time to help incoming students get to know what uni will be like, make some friends that will be on their campus, and think about the difference that Jesus makes during uni life.

This talk was part of the final session, where I encouraged students to think about why they should join Christian Union – even if they’re not actually sure about Christianity to begin with.

If you know someone who is heading to uni this year, I’d love you to consider sharing it with them and chatting with them about how they might get serious about Jesus while at uni!


Are you heading to uni? The Heading To Uni website (https://www.headingtouni.info/) is a great place for resources and tips, and you can even search your university to find out about the Christian group at your campus.
