Roger has ministered to university students for 50 years now, sharing truths and wisdom that has changed the lives of thousands of students. I know this firsthand, because I was one who, now four decades ago, had the privilege of being discipled by Roger while a student at Miami University.  I am thrilled to have Roger on the show and have him share some of his wisdom on this podcast.In this podcast we discuss:What led him and Jason Weimer to write The FinishersWhy he believes this generation of students can finish taking the gospel to all people groupsHow his time in college deepened his vision to be part of fulfilling the Great Commission of Matt. 28:18-20His challenge to students to reject a posture of entitlement, and their reactionThe difference between rights and privilegesBreaking free of our “Pea-sized Christianity” and being a “World Christian”Why God often uses students to begin spiritual revivalsThe Christian Chinese “Back to Jerusalem” movementDefining the “10-40 Window” and why it is importantWhy understanding the return of Christ should motivate us to be World ChristiansThe role students can play in helping fulfill the Great Commission while still in collegeThe importance of students getting involved in a campus ministry (see https://everycampus.com/ for a list of good campus ministries on your campus)  The three key elements to use when evaluating which campus ministry to joinThe importance of having the correct understanding of calling and of God’s willFinding one’s “sweet spot”: gifts and strengths, passions, and the needs in the worldSeeing our work as having both intrinsic and instrumental valueThe greatest challenges students face in fulfilling their callingsThe current confusion between the gospel and social justice, and how this influences students and ministryThe cautionary example of the Student Volunteer MovementHow the gospel and justice do fit togetherWhy students must understand God’s grace, their identity in Christ, and that God loves them and likes themLiving life with an “eternal perspective”Living in light of the Holy Spirit’s leadingThe centrality of God’s Word and “thinking Christianly”The importance of knowing Christ is the only way to GodThe three things to look for in a mentor (someone to disciple you) Resources mentioned during our conversation:Roger Hershey and Jason Weimer, The FinishersThe Campus Ministry branch of CRURobert Coleman, The Master Plan of EvangelismThe U.S. Center for World Missions (Now Frontier Ventures)Greg H.
