WHAT IS ACT?

Picture
Active Christians Today (ACT) is an officially Registered Student Organization (RSO) at Bowling Green State University. We also have an RSO at the University of Toledo.  ACT was formed back in 1973, when people rode horses to work! Just kidding. We are old, but because we drink good freshly ground coffee we seem much younger than we are! Here are three other things you might want to know:
​
  1. We are followers of Jesus! Yes, it might sound weird and possibly intolerant to the modern mindset. But what does this mean? It doesn't mean we are perfect. But it does mean that we believe what Jesus taught, and we seek to ​live like, ACT like, teach like, smell like, and love like Jesus; aka Jesusy! Our community also includes folks just just trying to figure out what they believe, and that's ok! 
  2. We love college students! It can sound a bit creepy. But it's true! Love is a verb that is best lived out than just talked about, so we are done talking. Come see for yourself! Follow us on Facebook (facebook.com/actatbg) to stay up to date on upcoming events like: COOKOUTS, GAME NIGHTS, ROAD TRIPS, CAMPING TRIPS!   
  3. We want everyone everywhere to know the hope there is in Jesus. This is best shared as real friends not in pushy or manipulative ways, love doesn't do that. So we hope to offer true friendship whether or not someone decides to follow Jesus. Our weekly dinners & Bible discussions are open to all who want to explore with us the teachings of Jesus.
