Spiritual Reference Guide

Resource

What does this resource do for you?

Where do you find this resource? (Provide link, contact info, etc.)

Spiritual Life Page

The Department of Spiritual Life helps the GCU community grow in a http://students.gcu.edu/studentpersonal relationship with God life/spiritual-life.php through an active faith in Jesus Christ. I very much like the Passages of Comfort tab. When you are feeling anxious, sad, or hopeless, it is a great reference to look at what God says about the matter. I am interested in watching a live stream of the GCU Chapel to hear the Word and the worship team. The Life Groups are a great way to connect with other students for fellowship and mentoring.
