...for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for the fruit of light is found in all that is good and right and true), and try to discern what is pleasing to the Lord.
— Ephesians 5:8-10
Turn the World Upside Down
By David Bryant

So, you want to change the world for Jesus Christ? First, your own world must be radically turned upside down by a vision of "the greatness and glory, the majesty and supremacy, and the wonders of the love and saving power of the Lord Jesus Christ!" |

When I gave my life to Christ I found myself in Scripture often, and from my readings I began a transformation process that I would say was the groundwork to many blessings. I was impacted so much by the written Word that I naïvely thought I had mastered some of the directives given in Scripture, like the fruit of the Spirit, for instance. What I didn’t realize was that the change on the inside was not complete, but that I was being refined, more and more. |

Prayer Requests
UNIVERSITY MINISTRIES
Please pray for students who have accepted leadership roles within the ministries at campuses where Christian Union operates for the 2018-19 academic year. Pray the Lord would give wisdom and insight to outgoing leaders as they orient incoming leaders. And, as these students prepare to take on increased responsibility among their peers, please pray they would walk closely with the Lord this spring and throughout the summer. Join us in asking God to bless them for their service and labor.
CITY MINISTRIES
CU New York is delighted to host "Faith in Giving: A Paradigm Shift for the City" on Thursday, March 29. As we work to be redemptive and transformative in New York it is imperative we ask and answer the question of what it means to live generously. For many of us generosity is aspirational, but it shouldn’t be something for the future; opportunities to begin to think differently abound. Pray with us and join us in New York to hear from Jeff Smith, President of Generosity New York.
DAY & NIGHT
Please pray the ministry successfully inspires millions of American Christians to seek God passionately through online means. Pray for our social media campaigns (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram) and our well-resourced website.
