Within a month of arriving on campus and connecting with the football team, our staff met Ryan, a senior captain from Texas. Ryan grew up without a strong faith background and spent his early college years consumed by football and the party scene. After some tragic events in his family, a friend invited him to church—where, for the first time, he heard the gospel and decided to follow Jesus.

Evan is a sophomore at the University of Oklahoma from Frisco, Texas. Growing up, he didn’t spend much time in church, attending occasionally but never really involved. When he came to OU, he was excited for a fresh start and ready to dive into the full college experience. He joined a fraternity and quickly found himself swept up in the party scene he had looked forward to all through high school.

When Maia arrived at the University of Georgia from San Diego, she had virtually no spiritual background and no plans to explore faith in college.
