Take the open seat is a space for honest conversations about life, faith, and God. Wrestle with questions, work through your doubts, connect with community and explore how Jesus brings hope, meaning, and guidance to your life.
Cru is a Christian nonprofit on campuses worldwide, helping students explore faith, ask honest questions, and grow together in safe, supportive communities.
Talk in person or via video or text with caring people on your campus that are ready to listen, answer questions, and help you take next steps in your spiritual journey. The people you’ll connect with will either be students involved with Cru or Cru staff members
Open Seat: A Prayer Journal for Finding Hope is a simple tool to help you bring your worries to God, one prayer at a time. It’s not about perfect words, it’s about showing up as you are. Start with a conversation. God is always listening.
What questions have been coming up the most on your spiritual journey?
We would love to hear from you. Let us know what you’ve been wrestling with and we’d be happy to weigh in. Someone from the Take the Open Seat team will reach out to connect with you.
“Remember that you’re loved. There’s a lot of people that care about you. Your existence matters.”
“We’re all living a similar human experience. What you’re experiencing I guarantee you that out of the 8 billion other people on this earth... someone else is experiencing as well.”
"If you ever think that you are at your lowest and that God has left you, you just got to ask Him."
