CFLP 13: From Shook Freshman to Loving Jesus and Leading in Ministry as a College Student with Lauren Barker

By Dave Hess

Lauren Barker is a college student at Temple University who serves in leadership within the ministry of Every Nation Campus Philly. She was raised as a Christian and was intentional to get involved in a faith community when she went to college, but she says she was “shook” by her first year college experience.

In this episode, Lauren shares how she navigated the difficult transition into college, grew into a deeper love for Christ her first couple years in university, and some ideas for sharing the Gospel on campus — even during a pandemic.
