Hello everyone,

I hope everyone is doing well this week. As we near the end of the bi-term, times are becoming more stressful. Eight-week terms are almost over, so many will have finals while sixteen-week terms are approaching their mid-term exams. Be sure to attend classes, stay focused, and study the best way you can keep up with things! Nothing is more rewarding than seeing the grade at the end of the term after working vigorously for it.

Something fascinating is going on at a fellow Kentucky university, Asbury University. One of the best things is to see a spontaneous revival like this. The students created an atmosphere fostering a welcoming environment for people from all over the country to join them in worship. This event is one of the most inspiring things to see. There are many false teachings in today’s world; one can often not tell what is real and what is a show. Asbury has set an excellent example of leadership, love, and faith over the past two weeks. At the Cumberlands, everyone needs to set this example as well. Do not be a part of a trend, but spread the word of God authentically and uniquely to the testimony you have to tell.

This issue will include a testimony from a student on campus here at UC. There are articles focusing on the choir, dining options, and professors. One piece will be about the first silent disco that our campus hosted. The event was in place of the typical casino night, but there will be other events later in the semester to help transition between the two. The silent disco will prove to be fun. Make sure you show up in a themed outfit, ready to dance and socialize!

This bi-term has gone by quickly. The days are long, but the months are short, so time is just passing. Surrounding yourself with people you love and who are true to themselves (and you) is the best way to spend your time. Enjoy the time you have in the present while you can.

Instead of spending so much of your brainpower on the past or future, live in the moment. God is moving across the country and showing the believers here on our small campus in southeastern Kentucky! Be vigilant.

Love, Summer Mills
