Chapel is a great way to spend time with Jesus. It allows you to start your week with inspiration and guidance from the Lord. It gives you hope and strength for the rest of your week. You get to spend time with other students in worship and listen to a message from local pastors. It is similar to a church service but takes place on a Monday morning when there aren’t any classes going on. This is a great opportunity to spend time with the Lord and hear amazing messages that help give you motivation through your college experience.

“Therefore, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in the Lord your labor is not in vain.” – 1 Corinthians 15:58

If you are someone who likes to be creative by drawing and coloring, then you should start Bible journaling. Bible journaling is taking your bible and turning verses into colorful pictures to make them stand out on the page. It gives verses more meaning and draws more attention to them. This is a great way to connect with more verses and spend time with God. Grab some colored pencils and play some worship music in the background and spend time getting creative with your favorite verses.
