Whatever point you are at in life, we believe you need to experience wonder, discovery and passion (that’s the “3” in our name, and we’re all about experiencing those three). We all need to experience who God is and who you are in relationship to Him. It doesn’t stop there, though; we believe life isn’t about just you and God—it’s also about God and others. It’s about learning to see, serve and love the people and world around you.

Regardless of age and experience, we can learn from one another. A 48-year-old dad can learn from a 21-year-old, and vice versa. The apostle Paul talks about joining the Romans so that they could be “mutually encouraged—by one another’s faith (Romans 1:10-12). This is the type of relationship we desire to cultivate. We believe that God brings each of us through different experiences and teaches us truths in different ways, so both sides of the relationship have worthwhile contributions to the conversation. This mutual fascination is fertile ground for God’s Spirit to work in both lives. In other words, when two people can be mutually fascinated with what God has done and is doing in one another’s lives, God uses that to mutually transform both.

College-age people desire to be connected to our churches, not just age-specific ministries. And we believe it’s through relationships that connectivity and belonging are found. Furthermore, we believe this is perhaps the most critical piece for keeping college-age people engaged in the body of Christ, which is at the heart of the Orange Strategy.

We believe that one of the ways we grow spiritually is through providential relationships—being connected to the right people at the right time in your life. We create Conversation Guides to provoke discussion and help two people (or a small group) go through that process and come to their conclusions together. Conversation is the goal, not a belief. The goal is to promote conversations that will open the door for the Holy Spirit to transform us.
