My Thoughts: How to Stay Christian in College

If you are going off to college this Fall, or are already enrolled in a university, this book is for you. I read this book in just a few days because I enjoyed it so much. In many ways, the book showed the practical side of many philosophical ideas. J. Budziszewski touched on many of the issues that we will face in the university. Some of the ideas that he discusses in How to Stay Christian in College are refuting Postmodernism, Naturalism, and New Age, myths about love and sex, myths about knowledge, and myths about politics. Along with all of these extremely useful insights, he shows us some tactics that will strengthen out faith in college. I am convinced that if we use this book as a guide, then our faith will not only survive in the university world, but will flourish. Even though there are some things that he talks about that I do not necessarily agree with, I think that everyone going to secular institute or a Christian institute needs to read this book. I give this book 4.5 stars out of 5.
