Hear Caleb's One80 and the unlikely mentor who walked him back from the bridge. "And then, at the pinnacle of my life. . . why do I feel so empty?" said University of Minnesota student Caleb Jue, on his rock bottom night. But God reached out to Caleb and a journey of restoration would come to him. Namely in the form of a Pinnacle Forum leader, Merrill Oster. These Pinnacle retirees had been praying that they would mentor a student from an area high school, and in walks Caleb to Merrill's home. Hear how he went to Merrill's house to solicit power washing, but left with purpose. God uses this relationship to steer Caleb towards faith in Christ, and freedom from his sinful patterns. This story is a testament to redemption and the power of mentorship.Helpful Links:SALT, the U of Minnesota Church, a college church planting network https://www.thesaltnetwork.com/Mentors for college studentsPinnacle ForumChristian Mentoring, helpful resources from Cru.orgLet us know what you thought of the show!Follow One80 on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or our website.Never miss a One80.
