MADDIE GOODRUM

Role - Campus Staff (SEU)

Hometown - Orlando, FL

Being raised in a loving Christian home, I just assumed I was a Christian and tried to live as good person. Towards the end of my high school years I experienced some major disappoints in my life, leaving me angry at God and confused by His character. I started college the next year with those same emotions but wanting to get involved with a ministry because that was my norm. My first semester I met a CO staff women and we began to read the bible together. This exposure to God’s Word revealed my hard heart and clear misunderstanding of God’s mercy and grace being the sole thing gifting me an intimate relationship with my Maker. As God used CO and the local church to grow my understanding and love for Him, my desire to see others experience this same transformation also grew. God has been so good to show me the value of investing in college students, seeing their lives given over to the Lord, and I want to see that cycle continue on the college campus!
