Expanding horizons: Making history at HBU

Houston Baptist University (HBU), “A university that is boldly Christian,” is the next destination for Revolutionary Ministries (Houston Eagle Church Campus Department).

Houston Baptist University was founded more than fifty years ago, and has grown to have more than 2,500 students; the directors of this school still keep true to the founders’ aim to “establish a Christian college of the highest order in Houston that stresses quality of life as well as quality of learning.” 

Upon this foundation, for many years the members of the campus department of Eagle Church have tried to branch out and establish roots in this place, but this had not been possible until now. However, this year, for the first time in the history of Revolutionary Ministries, two group Bible Studies were held at this campus.

The events, which took place on September 17 and 24, were held at the school chapel. Two new people attended the opening Bible study, while four new people attended Bible study the following week. Through the lessons that were taught, the audience learned about the importance of putting God as the first priority and also about the importance of time: how to use time wisely by starting the day early, praying sincerely and keeping one’s time with God regardless of one’s situation. Once the lesson had finished, one of the new people suggested that we offer praise together, so all the attendees offered praise to God for over an hour with fiery hearts of love.
 
Through group Bible study events such as these, Revolutionary Ministries is hoping not only to gather enough people to start an official club on campus, but also to change the lives of many young people who are seeking truth into lives with deeper relationships with the Lord.

Through Bible studies, Revolutionary Ministries is hoping to make history with the Lord at HBU.
