Stay The Course
A Devotional Handbook to Survive and Thrive in Your First Year of College (AND BEYOND)
Stay the Course prepares first-year college students for the challenges they will face while orienting their focus on God to help them when they feel overwhelmed mentally, emotionally, or spiritually.
About Stay The Course…
The college experience can be wonderful yet terrifying—at the same time!
Stay the Course supports students in the transition from high school through their first year of college—the most critical time of adjustment. Students will benefit from practical advice and find inspiration and encouragement through relevant scripture and prayer. Daily devotions are short to allow opportunity for reading in their busy schedule, but each is applicable to the challenging, stressful, and sometimes terrifying college experience.
First-year students struggle adjusting to being away from home, adapting appropriately to increased independence, coping with campus life, and accepting the challenging requirements of university academics. While the book does not promise to make the college journey free from all trials and tribulations, this devotional handbook provides strategies for success and spiritual mentoring to help beginning (and continuing) students scale the challenging mountain of college.
From tasks in the summer to ease the transition, to giving inside information on dealing with difficult professors, a long-time university teacher and student mentor shares insight to help students not to be overwhelmed in their first year of college.

About Honoring God With My Body…
As part of God’s awesome Creation, we are “fearfully and wonderfully made”. In his first letter to the Corinthians, Paul writes, Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God?
“You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies”.
1st Cor 6:19-20
