Tekiuh Hutton (Campus Outreach UC)
Coming from the last few years of high school and going into college at Northern Kentucky University, I was used to serving God through Christian activities. I failed to see that since accepting Christ I had equated my love for God and validated my relationship with Him by the teams, organizations and leadership I was a part of. Toward the end of my sophomore year, after being challenged to trust God with some financial issues, I realized that I had accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior but did not openly and willing sacrifice control over many areas of my adult life. I knew I wanted to start trusting Him, but how? In the fall of my junior year Campus Outreach came to NKU and many of the staff began spending time with the Gospel Choir I was on executive board for. Through CO I was introduced to a group of believers who were willing to reach out, love on me, and nurture my spiritual growth.
