Around 70 students snuggled on the sidewalk of the Campus on the night of March 10 with the aim of writing the entire Gospel of John, 879 verses, on their public university campus in the morning, the student newspaper, the College Heights Herald, reported.

The project, headed by the Baptist Campus Ministry (BCM) and attached by other groups of Christian students, said Campus President “Cru” and Hilltoppers for Christ (HFC), was completed in a few hours, said BCM president, Cameron Shaw. Fox News Digital.

“We hope to continue a chain that other universities can also (follow),” said Shaw.

The students first obtained permission from the university to write the verses. Shaw admitted that he initially doubted, fearing that the group’s actions could be taken negatively. But finally they decided to do so, believing that it could be a unique way of presenting the Bible to their peers.

“The main reason for us to do this is ultimately to spread the good news, or the Gospel,” said Luke Alford, vice president of BCM and last year student in WKU.

“We live at a time when there is a lot of uncertainty and confusion in the world that surrounds us, especially in a university environment full of a group of people who still discover how to be an adult. I firmly believe that the Bible has the answer to these questions, especially in John’s Gospel,” Fox News Digital said.

Rachel Harwood, another student leader with BCM, said some students left negative comments about their exhibition in Yik Yak, an application of social networks for university students. But the answer was not discouraged, saying that exposure to the Bible message was its goal.

“Although the answers were negative, the students were still talking about the truths that are in the Bible. This is as important as the positive comments because it makes students think where they are when it comes to the most important decision in their lives,” Harwood told Fox News Digital.

“This did not discourage students in the BCM to stop talking to students and the faculty on the campus. The next day, the BCM had a table and a slate prepared to talk to students and get their opinions. This was an excellent way to verbally share the gospel with the students,” he continued.
