“We are so excited to have Chmieleski on campus for such an important time of spiritual formation for our students,” said Brad Wallace, Milligan’s campus minister. “Spiritual Renewal Week exists to provide the campus community an opportunity to refocus on our shared faith and life in Christ, to challenge and call each other to lives that are more obedient and more centered on the love of God.”

Chmieleski’s books include “Shaping Their Future: Mentoring College Students Through Their Formative Years,” “Campus Gods: Exposing the Idols That Can Derail Your Present and Destroy Your Future” and “Noise. Hurry. Crowds: On Creating Space for God Amidst the Chaos of Campus and Culture.”
