REPRESENT: The Heart of the Matter

REPRESENT exists to represent a growing diverse population at Bethel University that reflects the Kingdom of God.

All this newness of life is from God, who brought us back to Himself through what Christ did. And God has given us the task of reconciling people to Him. For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself, no longer counting people's sins against them. This is the wonderful message He has given us to tell others. We are Christ's ambassadors and God is using us to speak to you. We urge you as though Christ Himself were here pleading with you, 'Be reconciled to God!'"
2 Corinthians 5:18-20

Our identity is found in Christ Jesus alone. As multicultural people, we REPRESENT God's Kingdom through diversity of culture and reconciliation of people unto God.
