Real Students Experiencing Real Impact
Hear what our students have to say about Lifeworks
Lucy
“I was very angry with God for a long time, but then I got invited by my friend Ruby to go to my home church in Noblesville, Indiana… I had a really good youth group back at home and I wanted something similar to that here at Bethel, and I immediately wanted to jump in and I felt so welcomed automatically. It’s just been so good for me to get filled every week.”
Andres
“I always, like, growing up, kind of hung out with the wrong crowd, per se, and made bad decisions and it was kind of like a ripple effect. I noticed my life wasn’t where I wanted it to be going… Lifeworks has just really encouraged me… people with the same values, and the same type of vision, and where you want to be in life, how you want to represent yourself through Christ…”
Jona
“I came to Christ through lots of conversations with Redford and other people at Lifeworks, other students from Bethel. I questioned a lot of things… One year ago I thought that basically everything was coincidence and there’s not a higher power in life… I basically thought that, ‘I’ll live my life, and everything I do has a reaction to it.’ And I thought that the universe was created in that way, too.”
Olivia
“The second I walked into Red and Liz’s home, I was greeted by like, the sweetest people ever in my life… you can be down, you can be struggling in your relationship with God, you can just be feeling so alone, and you go to Lifeworks and the second you walk into there, it’s the most welcoming, amazing place… it has impacted me so deeply. It has changed my life.”
Alhen
“My friend, Ryan, my best friend, he wanted to bring me to LifeWorks and I was just, you know, I was not interested at the time… I didn't know the Lord… What I ended up doing was going to church more often with him… And so I gave Lifeworks a second chance… I just feel like the Lord has given me a blessing… I love Lifeworks so much.”
Austin
“Growing up in the church, I was always kind of bored. I was kind of there because I had to be… My sister was invited to Life Works, so I ended up coming so that she wasn't alone… I definitely met a lot of people, which has really helped me in my faith.”
