7 Marks of a Great Leader
Church planter, Ron Edmonson gives 7 Marks of a Great Leader. These are all great qualities, but not achievable without the help of God’s Spirit in our lives. Here at Cru we pray that God is maturing each student involved with us in their leadership skills whether they are living out their faith on their dorm floor, leading a small group, or planning an event.

Thoughts on Dating an Unbeliever
This artlcle by Kathy Keller, wife of pastor Tim Keller of Redeemer Church in New York, talks about good reasons why as a Christian you shouldn’t marry a believer. She has been involved in counseling many women in unhappy marriages who got involved with a non-Christian guy, got married and now experience pain and loneliness. If only she could have these women sit down with someone who was younger and thinking about marrying a non-Christian, then they would have a better picture of what they would be facing in an unequally yoked marriage. Either you would have to push your faith to the outer margins of your life to keep peace in your marriage, or you would have to marginalize your spouse to participate in Christian activities. Either scenario will create constant tension and stress in your life.
