The Chapel Quotes
“We love to predict, but what we found over time is that we’re just not very good at it. There is going to come a time when this Kingdom we are experiencing partially will exist in its totality. Will we see it coming? It will be paved with pains, persecution and a prince who will turn the world away from Jesus. We should be trying to make this world a better place, to take care of this world, not to make it worse. There will be waves where it gets worse, and ultimately, it’s a downward spiral that leads to the Kingdom of God coming. It’s going to be hard being a Christian but the one who endures to the end will be saved. As people die for their faith in Jesus, so comes the spread of the Gospel. Stay awake and be ready, live like you are expecting Jesus’ return. If Jesus were to arrive today, what would He see us doing on a regular basis? What are the trials and tribulations of this world doing to your heart? Is it getting harder or softer? Jesus Christ changes the condition of our heart. He is going to return, and all of us will come to a point in our life when we’ll have no more time to get prepared. What is the condition of your heart?”

Devotion 04/13/2025
Our Devotion, “The Lord Saves” is by Katlyn Kay, a Professional Writing major at Taylor University in Upland, IN. She writes for Colorado Homes & Lifestyles, Church Libraries, and Christian Book Previews.
“Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous fall .” –Psalm 55:22
The greatest love story is found in the New Testament. That God would send His one and only Son to die for the salvation of others is sometimes unfathomable. But one aspect of this ultimate gift is often forgotten: the everyday salvation of Christ. As a young Christian, I used to focus on the salvation from eternal death, but as I continue to grow in my faith, I realize more and more the daily salvation Christ offers us.
Every day we are tempted by sin and our own lustful desires. And if that wasn’t enough, the world tries to discourage and bring us down as well. But the love of Christ offers refuge and hope in spite of our trial and tribulations. His love lifts us up and carries us to victory now, daily, even in the smallest of challenges. What a beautiful promise to comfort us in times of need!
The Lord saves in both the big and the small.

FROM SINGLE TO SERIOUS: Relationships, Gender, and Sexuality on Evangelical Campuses
BY Dana M. Malone
Rutgers University Press, PB, 240 pages
An evangelical college campus is a mosaic of conflicting ideals, especially concerning sex and sexuality. Peers at secular schools say sex activity is casual. Christian professors say sex is holy and restrained. Parents say premarital sex is prohibited altogether. The mixing of these ideals results in a confused, conflicted student body. So, how are relationships approached by students who attend evangelical universities?
In From Single to Serious, Dana M. Malone investigates this question. Her book is the result of a personal case study in which Malone talked face-to-face with students to discover their beliefs, opinions, worries, feelings, and concerns. Her questions to students were specific. What expectations do college relationships carry? How are relationships formed? How do relationships impact religion, and vice versa?
Malone’s conclusions are directly drawn from student interviews, resulting in a very accurate description of relationship culture within evangelical campuses. Her conclusions are backed by quotations from students expressing their observations of college dating. She references familiar campus lingo such as “MRS degree,” “freshman frenzy,” and “ring by spring” used by students in describing relationships. Her conclusions are conversational and make the student subjects three-dimensional to the reader, as if personally sitting in on the group discussions.
This study addresses the important, personal matters of relationships. Malone asked students what expectations they felt the need to conform to within relationships when under the watchful eyes of peers and campus faculty. She was sure to gain the perspectives of both men and women and learn the effects they felt from these expectations. The study also shows what happens beyond these expectations: what students are really thinking and doing?
This study boldly approaches a topic that many find too sensitive to discuss. Malone embraces real questions and gets to the heart of a culture that has yet to be heard from.
