If you were at HOPE today, you experienced a day of change. ASU students were treated to guest speaker Andy Poland's story of leaving Mormonism to pursue an authentic relationship with Jesus...not based on works & law, but on God's free gift of grace through Jesus work on the cross.
So many students were impacted by the message that our staff needed to start 13 new campus Bible discussions for the coming week, and 3 students gave their lives to Jesus during church! What a day at HOPE!
Guest speaker Andy Poland brings his journey of faith to HOPE today! From Mormonism to Christianity, we're excited to present The Core series today at HOPE. 11am & 5pm services at Neeb Hall, Arizona State University.
Last night one of our male campus staff lead a Bible discussion in the Barrett Honors College. The guys normally in the discussion brought their roommates who admitted they needed to move closer to surrendering their lives to Jesus.
Tonight at Fight Night, HOPE students made lists totaling 1,000 friends then took to the mic to pray for them....ALL! The climate at ASU is changing as students become fishers of men. Everyone committed to keeping their list of friends in a place they'll see every day this week.
Pray for ASU, fight for your friends. Fight Night round 3 starts at 830pm, LSA 191 ASU Tempe Campus!
Comedian Brad Stine hits the stage tonight at Neeb Hall for the Spring edition of Man Up. This is a men only event. The guys will chow down at 7pm, then take their seats at 8pm for the show! Brad is a Nationally known comedian who most recently appeared this morning on Fox News!
We are privileged to have Jack Zimmerman come to speak at HOPE today (he's speaking right now at the 5pm service, hurry over to catch him!). He tells his journey of faith from traditional Judaism to a radical relationship with Jesus. Jack said this morning, "I didn't want to come to grips with what His was telling me..."

Tonight at Fight night we celebrate the glory of God coming at ASU. 10 ASU students have surrendered their lives to Jesus in the last 10 days! We heard from one of them a few minutes ago--a roommate of one of our HOPE students.
Pastor Brian continues his sermon series THE CORE: WHAT'S AT THE CENTER? Church services are at ASU Neeb Hall, 11am & 5pm.
The HOPE Campus Team was out in force this week: we engaged 1186 students with conversations about Jesus & the Bible. 475 of those students are interested in hearing more about our church or dorm Bible Discussions. We currently have 70 Bible discussions set. And 5 students surrendered to Jesus with someone on our team! Get connected, the momentum is building at ASU!
Fight Night returned last night with a bang! Over a hundred rowdy HOPE Sun Devils filled LSA 191 auditorium to worship Jesus, and pray for friends. The spiritual climate changes at ASU when students gather to pray like this. Come fight with us; round 2 is next Thursday at 830pm!
One of our female staff caught up with a student yesterday who came to Bible discussions last semester. The student asked, "So if I wanted to repent, how would I do that?" She prayed with our staff member right there to repent and put her full trust in Jesus!
This is the 5th ASU student to surrender to Jesus this week!
One of our male student leaders just ran into a high school friend of his on campus who came up to him and asked if he could come to church at HOPE with him this weekend! The friend has been swept up in the party culture of ASU, and heavily involved in raves in high school.
Last night one of our female staff and a friend visited a girl at The Vue. The student told them about how the death of her friend, who was hit by a car recently, has provoked her to wonder what God is all about. The friend who died had actually written to his friends recently that he hoped they would find Jesus. The student is really interested now in what God is about and what His plan might be for her!
It's powerful to know that in the middle of the dorm with arguably the biggest party reputation on campus, that Jesus is on the move!
10 minutes ago, some of our North Campus team prayed with a student to surrender her life to Jesus! She was talking with some girls from HOPE who asked her, "Do you believe you'll go to heaven when you die?" The student responded, "What do I have to do to repent? Let's just do it!"
A student from Sonora Dorm was met by a team of HOPE students doing a survey (interviewing students about what they believe) this afternoon. He was so convicted and excited by the Truth he was hearing that he was ready to surrender to Jesus right there in front of his dorm!
