Something remarkable is happening on college campuses across America. After decades of decline, young people are showing up in basketball arenas, getting baptized by phone light, and buying Bibles at record rates.
Thai Lam, Executive Director of Collegiate Day of Prayer, shares what he’s witnessing firsthand—from the Asbury revival to 200 students baptized in a single night at Auburn. The data backs it up: Bible sales jumped from 10 million to 15 million in five years, mostly purchased by young men engaging in Scripture for the first time. But here’s what matters for your ministry: this movement needs the church.
Thai explains how pastors and seasoned believers can adopt local campuses in prayer, bridge the generational gap, and help sustain what God is doing among Gen Z.
Learn about the 200-year history of Collegiate Day of Prayer, practical ways to engage college students, and why churches that fast and pray with young adults are seeing transformation on both sides.
