How can our kids keep their faith in college? with Campbell Stites

Pardon the Mess with Courtney DeFeo

Pardon the Mess is sponsored by BetterHelp.

It’s not often you get to interview a college kid about growing up as a Christian. The Stites are family friends of ours and a family we admire and respect so very much. I am often asking them for advice since they are ahead of the game by a few years.

Today’s episode is a chat with their son, Campbell, who is studying political science at Texas A&M University. He has always been a leader and I have absolutely loved watching God grow his faith during his first year in college. He’s making some wise choices that we can all learn from.

My favorite part of the episode is when he encourages parents to get interested in their child's interests. He shares about how his mom invested in his interests and helped foster a super close mom/son relationship.

In this episode we discuss:

• How to make faith a priority in college
• The power of friends and your circle
• How to let boys have freedom vs controlling them
• The gift of allowing your teens to fail
