The Starter Kit, containing short articles and documents, is designed by Student LINC (Leaders In New Campuses) to help a student launch a ministry on their own campus.
The Starter Kit is just to help you get going. We will be available to coach you step-by-step through the process of launching the ministry as well as building it into a dynamic Spirit-led movement. You can phone us at 1-800-678-LINC (5462) or email us at studentlinc@cru.org.
The short articles in this Kit follow a more-or-less sequential order.
The initial documents are to help you get to know us and us to get to know you.
Then come the ‘big picture’ articles that provide a snapshot of what a Campus Ministry looks like, how it gets started, and the path to launching one. This is the roadmap of where we are headed and how we are going to get there.
Next we’ve provided you with some basic tools to get started: essentially the “How-to's.” Last, there are several articles which explain some basic principles of spiritual growth. You will want to read these over yourself as well as share with the members of your group. Other critical discipleship content can be found in the Discipleship section on this website.
