What if nothing seems to be going on spiritually on my campus?
There are five steps you must take:
- PRAY! Ask God to give you the wisdom to know how to get it started and who to invite to be a part of it.
- PURSUE! Ask a few other Christian students who are serious about the Lord to help you get started. Pick a time to meet so that you can work together to get something going.
- PLAN! Strategize together about what kind of campus ministry you want to start. If you want to "network" with an already existing model (FCA, First Priority, Campus Life, Youth Alive, etc.), decide who will contact their headquarters and get more information.

- PERMISSION! Get permission from the administration to start a campus club. If they seem to block your efforts, refer to " What if the administration seems to block my efforts??"
- PROCLAIM! Now it's time to go for it! Use your campus ministry as a launching pad to reach every student on your campus with the gospel of Jesus Christ! Meet at a regular time and place to pray and plan. Don't let the purpose of the group get muddy! The mission is every student on the campus reached with the ultimate message of hope!
