Social Groups Focus

People groups come in all kinds of shapes and sizes on your campus, and very campus has them.  These groups are not necessarily cliques, but they are sociologically classified as a culture within the youth cult on campus. Some of these people groups are: Jocks, cheerleaders, nerds, geeks, skaters, stoners, goths, surfers, ropers, hackers, and neo-hippies.
Each of these people groups is a mission field within the mission field of the campus. They represent students struggle for identity and survival on campus by seeing acceptance by a well defined group. The students must feel the acceptance of Christian students on campus, in fact, within these groups there may already be committed Christians who feel accepted by them.  Christians within these groups may merely need encouragement to reach out to their peer group with the love of Christ. They would make an excellent addition to your team on students trying to reach students.
