Most Christians who permanently fall away from God and disengage their faith do so during their college years. According to the research of recent college graduate and author Adam Erwin, a main reason for a Christian's spiritual demise in college is due to a difficult transition from high school to college. Most incoming freshmen have such a tough time adjusting to their new life in college that God gets put on the back burner and daily survival becomes the focus. Unfortunately, a personal relationship with God will never regain its importance for the lost freshman. This book is the most student-focused book about the college transition. Adam interviewed 300 high school seniors from the graduating class of 2002 to learn about their fears, anxieties, areas of excitement, and questions about college. He then interviewed 142 current college students to get their take on what incoming freshmen need to know before hitting campus. The result of these interviews is a book that helps high school seniors and incoming college freshmen walk through the issues most relevant to their college experience before they hit campus. This book is designed to help students get a handle on 'the everyday of freshman year' so that God doesn't get lost in the mix.
