CHRISTIAN CHALLENGE AT A GLANCE
Christian Challenge's vision is to Challenge and Train students at Western Colorado University to know, love and glorify God, relying upon Him, to develop qualified disciplemakers, that will spread the gospel of Jesus Christ from Western to the ends of the earth. We accomplish this by teaching them to be God-centered spiritually reproducing followers of Christ, by loving them, opening our lives to them, sharing the Truth with them, equipping them to be qualified laborers, and sending them out to change the world in Christ’s power.
