Title
Make College Count: A Faithful Guide to Life and Learning - Paperback
by Derek Melleby (Author), David Kinnaman (Foreword by)
There's more to college than classes, credits, and a nonstop social life. It's more than getting a degree to improve one's job prospects. College is a time where students develop into the adults they will be for the rest of their lives, a time to explore the big questions about life and human destiny, a time when they form their character and faith.
The perfect gift for high school graduation, Make College Count helps students make the most of their time in college. It encourages young people to ask important questions of themselves, such as
Why are you going to college?
What kind of person do you want to be?
How do you want your life to influence others?
With whom will you surround yourself?
What do you believe?
and more

"For years I have been looking for the right book to give to Christian high school grads: readable, real, honest, grace-focused, Christ-centered, and practical. Make College Count is that book."--Chap Clark, author of Hurt: Inside the World of Today's Teenagers; pastor and head of staff, St. Andrews Presbyterian Church "Christian college students hear a lot about what to avoid during their college years. So it's refreshing to encounter a book that explains what students should embrace in college. It's clear that Derek Melleby understands the world of today's students."--Joseph M. Stowell, president of Cornerstone University Derek Melleby is the executive director of the OneLife Institute, a ministry that provides students gap year programs focused on discipleship, travel, and service.
