Christian students are taking part in a massive Gospel giveaway in response to the ‘no God’ adverts placed on buses across the country. The British Humanist Association’s advert proclaims, “There’s probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.” It’s endorsed by atheist Professor Richard Dawkins.
Christian Unions in universities across the UK are giving away 400,000 copies of a special student edition of St Mark’s Gospel. UCCF, the umbrella organisation for Christian Unions, said the high turnout at its carol services last Christmas was an indication that university students do not share the scepticism of Dawkins and other atheists. Pod Bhogal, Communications Manager at UCCF said “Richard Dawkins is to be thanked for once again, raising the profi le of God. We are grateful to him for keeping God on the nation’s agenda.”
Christian students will be giving away copies of St Mark’s Gospel over the next two months. CUs are also planning outreach events throughout the year ranging from debates to lectures, café meetings, Alpha courses and lunch-time question and answer sessions.
UCCF has put together resources to help students make the most of the Gospel giveaway. Go to www.uccf.org.uk
